Lamar King

Seattle moved down from #20 to #22 in the 1999 first round with Dallas, adding a fifth-round pick and selecting DE Lamar King. The trade-down itself was modest, but the outcome was underwhelming because King never delivered the pass-rush value expected from a first-round defensive end. Dallas used the original slot on Ebenezer Ekuban, who had the longer career. The move earns a mid-tier grade because the asset exchange was reasonable, not because Seattle maximized the pick.
