Top 5 Tackles in Seahawks Historyfootballmaven.io/seahawks/news/top-5-tackles-in-seahawks-history-eg5O5YuV-UK-H7H0VTSVoA/During the Pete Carroll era, the Seahawks have consistently struggled to field a quality offensive line, though that trend seems to finally be heading in the opposite direction. But in earlier eras under coaches Mike Holmgren and Chuck Knox, Seattle’s strength lied in the trenches, paving the way for multiple playoff appearances in the mid-2000s as well as the mid-1980s. Headlined by a generational, Hall of Fame talent in Walter Jones, the team has developed plenty of quality tackles over the years at one of the game's most important positions. Looking back at Seattle’s 42 years as an NFL franchise, which tackles stand out as the best to play in Seattle? Here’s my final rankings for the top five offensive tackles in Seahawks history. 5. Ron MattesSeahawks Tenure: 1985-1990 Seventh-round picks rarely become starters, but that’s exactly what Mattes did after joining the Seahawks as the 193rd overall pick in the 1985 NFL Draft. Following a “redshirt” 1985 season, he replaced departing left tackle Ron Essink in the starting lineup and instantly found success, starting all 16 games for Seattle’s 10-win, playoff-bound squad. Mattes maintained a starting spot over the next two seasons protecting Dave Kreig’s blindside, as Seattle remained competitive with back-to-back 9-win seasons and returned to the playoffs in 1988. Unfortunately, the team used a first-round pick on tackle Andy Heck in 1989 and he eventually supplanted Mattes in the lineup. He would start 15 games in his final two seasons with Seattle before wrapping up his career with Chicago and Indianapolis.
