Fourth round draft pick Cassius Marsh has been turning heads in OTAs. He's an excellent athlete and of course has the requisite "high motor." He can easily become another White pass rushing beast -- if he gets a fair opportunity, always the pertinent question when it comes to the Caste NFL.
*If the offseason workouts were an indication, the Seahawks might have hit on fourth-round pick Cassius Marsh. Part of the reason Marsh was not chosen earlier is some teams weren’t sure what he was. During his time at UCLA, Marsh was a 300-pounder as well as a 258-pounder. He played defensive tackle, defensive end and even outside linebacker. But he is precisely the type of versatile player Pete Carroll works well with.
The plan for Marsh in Seattle is to bulk him up to about 275 pounds. He is listed at 254 but recently weighed 265, a source said. And he is likely to line up as a 5-technique on first and second downs and as a 3-technique on nickel downs.
