The Seattle Seahawks have selected D'Wayne Eskridge with the No. 56 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact:

The Seahawks will add more speed alongside Tyler Lockett and D.K. Metcalf in their wide receiving corps, selecting Western Michigan WR D'Wayne Eskridge. Eskridge has home-run playmaking ability due to his background as a 100 and 200-meter sprinter in high school. The 24-year old switched to a receiver from running back, which always bodes well for the vision of a receiver who has experience looking for running lanes out of the backfield. If Russell Wilson can get better offensive line play in 2021, expect Eskridge to become a WR3/Flex option in PPR formats as the season progresses.
