Examining every early-round Seattle Seahawks running back drafted this century
How does everybody feel about Jadarian Price in the first round? The fact that it feels like the Seattle Seahawks made good use of their other picks to address needs make me like it even more than if it were in a vacuum. Let’s take a look at all of the running backs that the […]
Why the Seahawks bet on Bud Clark’s ball-hawk mentality
After opening their draft with Jadarian, the Seahawks almost doubled down on the theme in Round 2 with a Ja’Darius. At pick No. 64, Seattle selected Ja’Darius ‘Bud’ Clark, a versatile defensive back out of TCU who projects as one of the more intriguing fits in Mike Macdonald’s evolving secondary. With Coby Bryant now in […]

Why Dante Fowler Jr. might be John Schneider’s smartest move of the Seahawks offseason
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 […]
Where the Seattle Seahawks’ 2027 draft capital currently stands
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 […]
Seahawks 2026 rookie predictions: Will Jadarian Price live up to his lofty draft expectations?
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.

Seahawks crush it in Daniel Jeremiah’s unique NFL Draft value grade
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 […]
Recent Seahawks draft pick signs with UFL team
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 […]
Why Dante Fowler Jr. isn’t necessarily guaranteed his role in Seahawks defense
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 […]

No replacement refs: NFL, Referees Association reach new agreement
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 […]

Eight men in and out: How much John Schneider saved replacing key Seahawks departures
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 […]
Investors from 49ers, Celtics in the mix to bid for Seattle Seahawks ownership
The Seattle Seahawks’ new ownership group may be just like the old one: a team of basketball owners.

Seahawks enter 2026 with the youngest roster in the NFC West

Kenneth Walker reveals how early he knew he wasn’t returning to Seahawks
Much was made about the “Super Bowl MVP” signing with the Kansas City Chiefs this offseason. While it doesn’t happen terribly often in the same season, it’s not quite the blockbuster the media made it sound like at times. Still, Kenneth Walker III declined to stay with the championship Seattle Seahawks for his first free […]
Seahawks News 5/6: Following Seahawks’ signing of Dante Fowler, what’s left to answer?
In Today’s Links: for one reason or another, the Seattle Seahawks did not prioritize drafting an edge rusher or high-end D-lineman this year. So, in response, they finally made it official: they signed Dante Fowler. Another veteran presence will most likely give our squad the chance to wait til next year to draft a dynamic […]
Mike Macdonald outlines early plans for Seahawks rookie Beau Stephens
Fifth-round picks don’t usually garner a ton of intrigue, but when the Seattle Seahawks traded 2027 draft capital to get Beau Stephens at pick 148 in last month’s NFL Draft, it certainly caused a bit of a stir as far as what it could mean for the offensive line. Stephens was an All-American guard at […]
