Finley, Rodney Thomas II & more) Why depth and long-term reliability at safety is a bigger priority than many realize The top safety prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft class (Caleb Downs, Dillon Thieneman, Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, A.J. Haulcy & others) How Mike Macdonald’s defense could benefit from a versatile, high-IQ safety addition Realistic draft targets for Seattle with their limited picks Even as defending Super Bowl champions, the Hawks can’t afford to stand still.

In this breakdown, we dive deep into the top edge rushers projected to be selected in the first four rounds. We evaluate which prospects best match the versatile, disciplined, and scheme-flexible traits that define a Mike Macdonald edge — strong run defenders who can set the edge, rush the passer with multiple moves, and thrive in a multiple-front system with heavy disguises and smart pressures. From high-upside athletes to pro-ready pocket collapsers, we analyze film, athletic testing, production, and scheme fit for the Seattle Seahawks and any team running a similar modern defensive structure.

While the rest of the league scrambles to close the gap in free agency and the draft, Seattle continues to look untouchable. In this video, we break down exactly why the NFL is desperately chasing the Seahawks — and why they still can’t seem to catch them. From their elite defense and explosive offense to their young core and championship culture under head coach Mike Macdonald, Seattle has built something special that the entire league is trying (and failing) to replicate. We dive into: How the Seahawks dominated the 2025 season and lifted the Lombardi Trophy Key roster moves and losses in the 2026 offseason (including Kenneth Walker III) Why their foundation remains rock solid despite the turnover The biggest threats trying to catch them — and why they’re still falling short Can any team actually close the gap in 2026, or are the Seahawks building the start of a dynasty? Drop your thoughts in the comments: Which team has the best shot at catching Seattle this year?

In this breakdown, I rank my top 15 prospects who perfectly fit Seattle's scheme under Mike Macdonald — from explosive running backs to lockdown corners, edge rushers, and trench warriors. We dive deep into why these players match John Schneider's draft philosophy: athletic freaks, high-character guys, and immediate-impact talents who can contribute right away. Who are the sneaky options at pick #32? Could Jadarian Price revive the run game? Or will CBs like Brandon Cisse or Chris Johnson replace the lost secondary depth?

Armed with as much money to spend as just about anyone in the NFL, they've made some key in-house signings while seeing other valuable players like Boye Mafe, Tariq Woolen, Kenneth Walker III and Coby Bryant leave in free agency. They have signed Emanuel Wilson, Noah Igbinoghene and Rodney Thomas as depth pieces as basically the vet minimum. They currently have the 8th most amount of cap space in the NFL. What's going on, why aren't they being more aggressive? On the show today, I'll breakdown why the Seahawks approach has all been part of the plan and why a big move will be coming, we just have to be patient.

The Seattle Seahawks stayed patient early on, locking in two key pieces from their recent Super Bowl run: re-signing CB Josh Jobe (3 years, $24M) and WR/return specialist Rashid Shaheed (3 years, $51M, $34.7M guaranteed) to keep core talent in the Emerald City. But the departures sting—Super Bowl MVP RB Kenneth Walker III bolted to the Kansas City Chiefs on a big 3-year deal (up to $45M), while S Coby Bryant headed to the Chicago Bears, OLB Boye Mafe joined the Cincinnati Bengals, and CB Tariq Woolen (Riq) landed with the Philadelphia Eagles on major market contracts. Join us as we break down these moves, react to the wild spending league-wide (insane guarantees and overpays everywhere?), share our biggest takeaways from Day 1 chaos, and map out how the Seahawks might navigate the rest of free agency—potential targets, cap space plays, and what this means for the roster moving forward.
