A Seattle-type of receiver
It’s very easy to see why the Seahawks liked Amara Darboh.
“He was one of those guys that we were laying in the weeds on him a little bit… They give you so much information on him and he checks so many boxes that he was one of those guys that you didn’t really have to spend a ton of extra time on.”
Those were the words of John Schneider shortly after the third round concluded.
When you run through ways to define a Seahawks receiver, Darboh ticks all the boxes:
— Gritty backstory
— Battled adversity
— Good route runner
— Willing blocker
— Good awareness when working back to the QB
— Ample size
He’s also clearly the best overall athlete they’ve drafted at receiver.
