For most of the offseason, Seattle Seahawks fans expected Seattle to make a splash at EDGE. The rumors were everywhere. Big names, cheap projects were constantly connected to the team, while Boye Mafe’s departure increasingly felt inevitable after reports surfaced that Seattle explored trade possibilities around the deadline last year. Add in the uncertainty surrounding DeMarcus Lawrence’s future, and the need for pass-rush help only became more obvious.
Yet free agency passed without Seattle making a major addition to the room.
Then the NFL Draft came and went. Outside of a few UDFAs, the Seahawks still had not added another...

We’re two weeks removed from the NFL Draft and just over a week beyond the window for the compensatory pick formula portion of free agency. Any signing the Seattle Seahawks make moving forward will not potentially cancel out a comp pick, so there’s no need to worry about the Dante Fowler Jr acquisition.
With the 2027 draft advertised as deeper, having as many picks as possible was a clear goal for John Schneider and the Seahawks staff. Good news! Even after giving up next year’s fourth-rounder to move back into this year’s fifth round for Beau Stephens, Seattle’s treasure chest...

Once again, the Seattle Seahawks drafted a player at their original slot in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, selecting Notre Dame running back Jadarian Price at No. 32 overall. Price will attempt to step into the explosive shoes of reigning Super Bowl 60 MVP Kenneth Walker III, who departed in free agency to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Right off the bat, let’s address that one red block in Price’s RAS: his weight at 203 lbs. He admitted in one of his post-draft interviews that it was lighter...

Daniel Jeremiah remains one of the best NFL draft analysts out there, not to mention his special connection to Seattle sports through a regular segment on 710 AM radio.
Jeremiah just released a draft recap ranking of sorts, tied to his own 150-player big board. It values expected points up against actual draft position, following the first 150 picks of the 2026 NFL draft.
The best team from the NFC West was the Seattle Seahawks.
It’s a big tweet so let me include the rest of the list, because wait until you see who’s at the bottom!

When the Seattle Seahawks doubled down at the cornerback position in 2024, they went with a pair of Auburn teammates in Nehemiah Pritchett and D.J. James. While fifth-round pick Pritchett is vying for more playing time in his third season on the roster, the sixth-round selection James made neither Seattle’s initial 53-man roster nor the practice squad.
If you’ve ever wondered what happened to James after his Seahawks departure, he’s now in the United Football League with the Orlando Storm. UFL reporter James Larsen had the scoop earlier this week.
After James was waived by the Seahawks, he spent his...

The Seattle Seahawks finally signed an edge rusher; all is now set! We’ve replaced everybody we lost, right?
Yeah, kinda.
The Seahawks signed Dante Fowler Jr., who posted very solid grades in the 2025 season: 77.6, good for 21st out of 115 eligible EDGE players (for all who care to know what PFF thought). Fowler has averaged ~5 sacks per year over the last 6 seasons.
At this point, a lot of Seahawks fans might already be tired of hearing about people’s doubts about the team due to 2026 offseason free agent losses. The losses of Kenneth Walker III, Riq...

The Hawks Eye is going back into the football classroom this week with one of the sharpest defensive minds in the game, Cody Alexander of Match Quarters.
This show will center around the evolution of Mike Macdonald’s defense, why the Seattle Seahawks unit made such a dramatic leap in 2025, and what the future of the Seahawks defense could look like heading into 2026.
One of the biggest things I’m excited to discuss with Cody is what actually changed in Seattle last season. Beyond the statistics and rankings, what philosophical shifts allowed the defense to become one of the toughest...

The NFL will not be turning back the clock to 2012 this time around. Instead of everyone getting angry at replacement officials, fans will soon be irate over the regular officials for the 2026 season and beyond.
On Friday, the NFL and the NFL Referees Association agreed to a new collective bargaining agreement that will last into the 2030s. The previous CBA was set to expire at the end of this month, hence the contingency of having replacement refs prepared a lot sooner than the last time this happened.
“This agreement is a testament to the joint commitment of the...

Bobby Wagner’s sense of humor is next to none.
The legendary former Seattle Seahawks linebacker was chosen as the commencement speaker during Utah State’s undergraduate ceremony last month. During his speech, Wagner took a moment to lighten the mood by drawing attention to his new honorary doctorate.
“If you didn’t know, my name is now Dr. Bobby Wagner,” Wagner joked during his speech (via Seattle Times). “And to any family members here, you need to update my name in your phone. It’s ‘Dr.’ now. I will no longer respond to ‘Bobby.’ It’s Dr. only.”
Wagner played four seasons for the...

The Seattle Seahawks lost four key starters/starting-level contributors off their Super Bowl-winning roster this offseason. Boye Mafe, Kenneth Walker, Coby Bryant and Riq Woolen have new homes with big paychecks.
In response, Seattle drafted three replacements and signed a fourth. Let’s see how the math comes out on the other end for John Schneider and the Seahawks.
First up, the departed.
