How much the Seahawks are paying Laken Tomlinson

Just a week remains until the 2024 NFL Draft takes center stage for three days, and for fans of teams across the league that means looking to the future with hope and optimism. However, even as the youthful additions of the draft are just over the horizon, teams continue to evaluate things internally, including players recovering from 2023 injuries and offseason surgeries, as well as getting first looks at free agent signings.

For the Seattle Seahawks, this includes the former Pro Bowl guard the team announced on Monday it had signed, Laken Tomlinson. And while the Hawks are getting their...

Seahawks draft quarterback, add two ex-Huskies in Dane Brugler’s 7-round mock draft

Try this Seahawks mock draft on for size.

The Athletic’s Dane Brugler recently released his full seven-round mock draft, making predictions from Caleb Williams at No. 1 overall to the Chicago Bears all the way to former Washington Huskies running back Dillon Johnson as ‘Mr. Irrelevant’ as the 257th and final pick of the 2024 NFL Draft.

We (generally speaking) only care about the Seattle Seahawks, so we’ll focus on what Brugler has in store for Seattle’s class of 2024. As has been commonly predicted throughout the mock draft world, Washington offensive lineman Troy Fautanu is the Seahawks’ big move...

Seahawks have ‘sense of urgency’ under Mike Macdonald, says Leonard Williams

Leonard Williams, Tyler Lockett, and others share some positive updates at the team’s Wednesday presser.

The NFL Draft is just around the corner, so things are starting to heat up for the Seattle Seahawks and new head coach Mike Macdonald. While the focus is about to be entirely on players who have never played an NFL snap, the veterans are still getting a chance to sound off about how the offseason is going under the new staff. Fortunately, all reports are positive, with the new guys and veterans alike having positive things to say at the team’s presser on Wednesday....

How many Seahawks touchdown scorers from the Pete Carroll era can you name?

How many Seahawks touchdown scorers from the Pete Carroll era can you name?

Test your Seahawks knowledge in this regularly updated Sporcle quiz!

I figured we could take a break from the NFL Draft for just one second to do a little bit of trivia.

There’s a quiz on Sporcle maintained and updated every year by Timmy Crandall that lists every Seattle Seahawks player to score a touchdown in the Pete Carroll era. Now that the Carroll era is over, the final tally is 101 players and 675 touchdowns spread out over 14 seasons.

I’ve yet to get a perfect score. Last year I went 93 of 95, proving that my freakishly deep...

Report: Seahawks hosting former first round running back on free agent visit

Report: Seahawks hosting former first round running back on free agent visit

Rashaad Penny flashed for Seattle during a five-game stretch at the end of 2021, but between an injury-shortened 2022 and being buried on the bench in Philadephia in 2023, hasn’t been able to follow up on that record setting stretch.

The Seattle Seahawks have Ken Walker and Zach Charbonnet, second round picks in each of the last two drafts, at running back, along with 2023 seventh round selection Kenny McIntosh. However, between the departure of DeeJay Dallas to the Arizona Cardinals in free agency and the retirement of Bryant Koback, the team is somewhat light at the running back position...

2024 Seahawks Draft Central: Picks, analysis, live coverage, and more!

Complete coverage of the Seattle Seahawks at the 2024 NFL Draft in Detroit.

The 2024 NFL Draft is in Detroit this year (April 25-27), and it’s another intriguing looking three days ahead for the Seattle Seahawks.

This is the first draft for the Seahawks under new head coach Mike Macdonald. It’s also a draft without any picks from the Russell Wilson trade, so no extra first- or second-rounders on this occasion. Seattle does have a third-round pick from the Denver Broncos from a separate move made in last year’s draft.

Seattle enters draft week with seven selections, but no second-...

Why the Seahawks have long-term questions at wide receiver

Why the Seahawks have long-term questions at wide receiver

The Seahawks don’t have a lot of players under contract beyond 2025, and wide receiver is a position that could be addressed again in this year’s NFL Draft.

In the short-term, wide receiver is not an immediate need for the Seattle Seahawks in 2024. DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba will be the three main targets, with Jake Bobo, Laviska Shenault Jr, Dareke Young, and Dee Eskridge expected to be battling for playing time and/or roster spots. The long-term is a completely different question.

As of April 17, the Seahawks only have 13 players under contract beyond 2025, of...

The three paths for Seahawks, John Schneider, Mike Macdonald

The three paths for Seahawks, John Schneider, Mike Macdonald

As the smoke has somewhat settled ahead of the ‘24 draft, three main pathways lay available for John Schneider to choose.

The NFL Draft is in a week, and it will be the first for Seattle Seahawks with Mike Macdonald as head coach.

Much has been made about the relationship between John Schneider and Pete Carroll, and I think the truth is closer to what Schneider has said that Carroll wasn’t haphazardly waving the veto flag around throughout the entire draft.

However, the coach certainly has the next strongest voice, and we’ll get a clue as to Macdonald’s preferences based...

A Seahawks alternate reality: Drafting the players Mel Kiper would’ve taken

A Seahawks alternate reality: Drafting the players Mel Kiper would’ve taken

It would’ve been nice to have Tre’Davious White on the Seahawks. I sure as hell wouldn’t have wanted T.J. Green, though.

On Monday, a comment from Bigmarinerfan in the Mel Kiper/Field Yates mock draft article caught my attention.

These mock drafts are generally pointless (but harmless and sometimes fun!) exercises. What would it look like in an alternate world where the Seattle Seahawks went with Kiper’s picks 100 percent of the way? There is a clear butterfly effect at play when changing these picks over, but suspend that portion of reality for a bit and play along.

Seahawks add emergency quarterback to the roster

Seahawks add emergency quarterback to the roster

The fan-favorite punter and part-time quarterback will retire as a Seahawk.

Longtime Seattle Seahawks punter Jon Ryan announced his retirement less than two years ago, but he’s returning to the Seahawks roster one last time.

The Seattle Times’ Bob Condotta reported on Monday that the 42-year-old Ryan is signing a one-day contract to formally retire as a member of the Seahawks.

Ryan was the Seahawks punter from 2008 to 2017, appearing in 159 consecutive regular season games and 14 playoff games, including a Super Bowl victory in the 2013 season.

“[John Schneider] said we had to do it before the...
