Nick Emmanwori doesn't shy away from the comparisons to star safeties with similar physical profiles, nor the expectations that come with them. Derwin James, Kyle Hamilton, Kam Chancellor - it's all fair game to the Seattle Seahawks' rookie defensive back. "I love those expectations," said Emmanwori, so coveted by the Seahawks that they traded up to draft him with the 35th pick.
