Seattle Seahawks 2026 NFL Draft Preview: Limited Picks, Big Decisions
The Seattle Seahawks are gearing up for the 2026 NFL Draft with only four picks at their disposal. This draft marks the third under coach Mike Macdonald and the 17th under general manager John Schneider. The Seahawks' limited number of selections is due to the perceived lack of depth in this year's draft class. Despite this, the team holds the final pick in the first three rounds and the seventh pick in the sixth round, acquired from the Cleveland Browns.
General manager John Schneider and his team are known for their proactive approach to trades, especially towards the end of the first round. With a draft board that typically doesn't have 32 players with first-round grades, the Seahawks are open to moving back to acquire more picks. While the team doesn't have many pressing needs, positions like edge rusher, safety, cornerback, and running back are areas of interest following some key free-agent departures.
Throughout the draft, fans can expect to find grades and analysis of each Seahawks pick right here. The team's draft picks include No. 32, No. 64, No. 96, No. 188 (from Browns), and a few other selections. Stay tuned for updates on how the Seahawks navigate the 2026 NFL Draft.
