Seahawks Draft Magic: Stacked Roster Ready

On April 26th, the Seattle Seahawks rolled into the 2026 NFL draft as Super Bowl champs with most of their stars locked in.

But only four.

Picks on hand.

That put General Manager John Schneider in a tight spot, yet he stayed put in round one and traded smart to double their haul to eight players total.

They grabbed running back to Darian Price early to fill the bell cow roll after Kenneth Walker III.

Pairing him perfectly was Zack Sharbinay for.

A strong backfield duo.

Price brings speed and grit, even if he needs work on passes and fumbles.

Mel Kuiper Jr. from ESPN handed them a B-grade, but he called it magic how Schneider flipped those few picks into real talent.

Fans and analysts see it as a solid depth boost for a team already stacked.

Kuiper highlighted cornerbacks, Bud Clark and Julian Neal as ball-hawking ads for the secondary plus Gar Prospect, Bo Stevens and Massive.

Defensive tackle Devon Eastern to shore up the lines.

A few late picks like a manual Henderson Jr. might take time to crack the roster.

Schneider's built two championship squads before, so trust his moves.

The Seahawks stay loaded and ready to defend that title deep into the next run.
