Seattle Seahawks
Spanning decades, the Seahawks have an impressive list of big hits across the entire draft.
ESPN put the full weight of their offseason might into ranking the greatest draft pick ever at each selection, all the way to pick 262. Pretty cool exercise, and the Seattle Seahawks did quite alright for themselves.
Here’s the list!
Ben Solak called him “one of the best offensive linemen of all time,” and he beat Julio Jones for this honor at number six.
The reason you might have never heard of him is because...

After a disappointing 2024, will Bradford be able to keep his status of starter?
Anthony Bradford is entering his third year in the NFL, but without great expectations. He began 2024 as a starter and is the leading candidate to start again at right guard. After a rookie season with 578 snaps, he played just over 600 in 2024, being worse in EVERY possible aspect. The fact that he continues to be the leading candidate to start says more about the depth of the roster in the role than about Bradford’s quality.
PFF grades, considering he...

Also, what will the Seahawks do with Drew Lock?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Seattle Seahawks fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.

Seattle added another running back in a very strong class for the position. How will Damien Martinez contribute as a rookie?
Here’s a shocker…John Schneider drafted a running back! The 2025 running back class was extremely deep, so the Seattle Seahawks feel like they got a steal at No. 223 with Damien Martinez from the University of Miami. He rushed for nearly 3,000 yards over the past 3 seasons and brings a bruising rushing style (back) to the Pacific Northwest.
Martinez has a good RAS profile without being really exceptional...

Did Walker do enough for a contract renewal? At what cost?
Kenneth Walker III entered the 2024 season with high expectations after showing sporadic bursts of talent in his first two years with the Seattle Seahawks. However, his third season was marked by ups and downs. There were moments when his aggressive, explosive style shined, but also moments when his pursuit of the home run resulted in unnecessary turnovers.
In a league that is increasingly unforgiving of running backs, Walker faced an important test: proving himself worthy of being a long-term centerpiece of Seattle’s offense — and, of course, earning...

Can Mafe become an elite edge defender?
The 2024 season confirmed that Boye Mafe is not just an athletic prospect — he is an edge rusher who is evolving technically and mentally. After posting incredible numbers in 2023, the Seattle Seahawks defender has established himself as one of the cornerstones of the defense under new head coach Mike Macdonald, playing more roles and more complex functions in the scheme. In this article, we analyze the strengths and weaknesses of Mafe’s game, his production in 2024 and how much he could be worth at the negotiating table.
**Boye Mafe’s 2024 season...
