Seattle's group is receiving nearly a consensus high grade. Pro Football Focus gave the Seahawks an A, just one step down from the highest possible grade a team can receive. That began with a well-loved first-round pick of former North Dakota State guard Grey Zabel at No. 18 overall.

The Seahawks had clear needs up front on the offensive line, at wide receiver, and even in the secondary, and they managed to address all of them. Before the draft, general manager John Schneider said the team was in a position to draft " darn good football players " and that's just what they did.

The Seattle Seahawks added Ole Miss EDGE Jared Ivey as an undrafted free agent after the 2025 NFL draft. Jared Ivey passes the initial eye test as he looks the part of an NFL defensive end with his impressive size. He combines that with long arms and plenty of strength to project as a quality run defender at the next level.
