Seahawks Projected to Draft Oregon Guard in First Round

On April 3rd, the 2026 NFL Draft is just over three weeks out, and the Seattle Seahawks

hold the 32nd overall pick.

In CBS Sports' latest mock draft, Analyst Tom Frennelly projects them grabbing Oregon

Guard Emmanuel Pregnant right there in the first round to beef up.

Their interior offensive line.

Pregnant stands out in his deep class of interior lineman as an experienced, athletic

blocker with a high floor.

He might not have the quickest first step, but he adjusts fast, protects the passive solidly,

and dominates in the run game with strong hands and aggression.

Seattle's got real issues at Riot Guard, where Anthony Bradford wrapped the season with

rough grades from Pro Football Focus, a 50.6, overall that ranked 70th out of 81 guards

and a brutal 40.8 in pass blocking, dead last basically.

Fans and analysts see this as smarter than reaching for a luxury, like cornerback or

edge rusher, especially since running back to Darian price feels, like a stretch at 32.

Pregnant could slide right in as a day one starter, marking back-to-back first round

interior line picks for the Hawks.

With the draft clock ticking, Seattle's got time to lock in this need over flash, setting

up their line for a stronger push next season.
