It is day 1 of the NFL 2025 draft in Green Bay. The Seattle Seahawks should choose in n ° 18 in total, and although they have chosen to stand in their first original location in the past five years, it is perhaps the year when John Schneider returns to his negotiations. Otherwise, there are attractive options on the offensive and defensive side of the ball.
The staff of Field Gulls looked in their respective crystal balls to see what Seattle will do with his first choice. We will probably all be wrong as we were last year. Take a look!
Mookie Alexander: I would really like the Seahawks to invest more in the attack than defense in this project. Yes, they are closer to having an elite defense with the right recovery choices, but you do not win if you cannot mark, and this offense still needs a lot of work that I am not ready to assume that you click with a new coache staff. If the board falls from Seattle, I think they will stick and choose. Everything else and they could considerably exchange the 1920s.
Personally? I would stay and choose one of the Tetairoa McMillan, Emeka Egbuka or Colston Loveland. I would go Loveland on Egbuka on McMillan, in this order. I would wait for the second round to get a goalkeeper and preferably Donovan Jackson from Ohio State (yes, even on Gray Zabel). My concern is that Jackson will not be there at No. 50 and that it is easier to simply exchange and take it late first than go up in the second round. L’Al, do you want John to give you a guard? Here is your guard who can also play a tackle. Donovan Jackson, Ohio State at the bottom of the Tour 1 after an exchange. They get another choice of day 2 as part of this business.
Ted Zahn: I can tell you what Seattle will not do at No. 18, and this is the written writer of an interior offensive line. They will entertain the offers to exchange, but nothing will be worth in Schneider’s eyes because he already has additional ammunition. Seattle will choose another “bizarre” defender to add to the emerging defense of Mike Macdonald and no one corresponds to this bill more than Nick Emmanwori.
Terrance Robinson alias Thadisrad: Matthew Golden. Our beloved Seattle Seahawks will select Matthew Golden with the 18th choice for the NFL 2025 NFL. A mixture of alignment outside season expected, but exaggerated, with major positions in attack, led our team to comply five choices in the Top 100. In this spirit, our “Hawks have a unique opportunity to select several players to focus on specific positions of need more.
Matthew Golden provides know-how, speed, safe hands and intelligence in WR position. Although its framework does not necessarily correspond to what some would consider ideal for an WR1, its innate capacities highlight a player who can very well become one of the best in the league. Neither Golden ni Current W1 Jaxson Smith-Migba are entirely prototypical for the position. However, they both produce at a high level. In the new era, our squad is immersed, the results seem to have the most importance. Let’s put our guys and stuck tuddies.
Alexandre Castro: I think the Seahawks will stay at 18, or at most, exchange it. John Schneider has not shown good commercial capacity in the first round in recent years. In addition, it has been reported that few teams will be interested in exchanging due to the weak class. Therefore, there will be fewer options for JS in an exchange.
The team should go with the best player available at 18, even if it is not an OL, what fans want. I believe Jihaad Campbell (LB), Malaki Starks (S) and Mykel Williams (Edge) will be the possibilities. Tetairoa McMillan alias T-Mac, Wr of Arizona, This could be an option if the teams choose the offensive.
Patrick Hood: I also think that Seattle will remain at No. 18, although a business is not out of the question. I think the Seahawks will try to reconstruct their reception corps now that DK is out of the image, so I see them going for one or the other Tetairoa McMillan (Arizona) or Matthew Golden (Texas)Supplied at least one is always available when Seattle is on the chronometer.
John Tapia: This project seems to have very few impact starters “Blue Chip”, all that I suppose will have disappeared at 18 years old. By turning, the prospects available at 18 will probably not have much variance compared to those which could be available at the top of the second round, or even at 50, where the next draft of Seahawks. For this reason, Seattle will likely want to exchange, but finding a partner to exchange can be difficult, so I will go by assuming that no exchange can be made, and Seattle must stick and choose.
Since Seattle has four choices of four days, they are in a good position so as not to need to force a choice in a need for need like an offensive line. At 18, I predict that Seattle will select a player to a position where there is not much depth, a wide receiver. More specifically, a large large body receiver. Tetairoa McMillan could help replace this large deep threat which left when DK Metcalf went to Pittsburgh. However, if McMillan is not available, COLSTON Loveland at tight end could fulfill a similar roleOr even take Jayden Higgins at 18 could also be a sneaky option.
Frank T. Raines: I think John to want To exchange, but I doubt that he will get an offer that he likes more than one of the players at the top of his dashboard.
Will he use his first choice on an offensive line player? He’s a big no.
Will he use it on a “skill” position player? Probably not – even if I will laugh my ass if the Seahawks select a ball carrier (sneaky need), and I will do a happy dance if it is Omarion Hampton because my daughter is currently a graduate student at UNC -Chapel Hill.
The best bet for SEATTLE R1 this year? A piece of failure for defense.
Come on Hawks!
Gavin Feek: No, it will not be O-Line or WR in attack. But it will be offended. Missouri Ot Armand Membou slips in Chicago at n ° 10. SF becomes D and John Schneider calls Jerry Jones. Seattle Exchange the first round choices with the cowboys (and # 52 and # 92 (keeping # 50 and # 82)) to go to # 12 and select Penn State Bomptruck End, Tyler Warren. John Schneider loves him much more than Colston Loveland to take the plunge. Yes, it’s super specific, but what happens if it happens? I will be king for a day. Also, likes Tyler Warren. My second favorite player in the draft (just against Travis Hunter, of course). It will happen. Well, probably not, but it would be much cool if it was.
John P. Gilbert: That the Seahawks select at 18 are much less important than the number of fans who will be disappointed by anyone who chooses John Schneider to add to 18 years.
So many fans want the team to add an impact interior offensive line player, but the reality is the most offensive of offensive line editors is bad as recruits, even to the first round choices. So if they stay and make a choice at 18, I don’t expect it to be an offensive line player. Maybe a defensive line player or a rusher on board, but not an offensive line player. I guess they will arrive to date on day 2, but this is not an article on the predictions of day 2, this is an article on the predictions of day 1, which I managed to speak enough.
Bryce cost:: I predict that the Seattle Seahawks will select Gray Zabel, OL, North Dakota State, with their choice n ° 18 in the NFL 2025 draft. The Seahawks offensive line, in particular in Guard, was a weak link, with an incoherent game of Anthony Bradford, Sataoa Laumea, the versatility of Zabel to play guard or attack, athletics at 312 pounds and in the physical scheme of Klint Kubiak makes him an ideal choice to protect Sam Darnold and Macdonald. The simulated projects frequently associate Zabel in Seattle at n ° 18, and his polished performances in the project process position him as a safe and high impact starter to meet a critical need.
On the summary of the Hawkszone, I highlighted the urgency to repair the offensive line, pleading for versatile lines which can play several positions. Although I love Donovan Jackson of Ohio State for his flexibility as a guardian and considered Mykel Williams, Edge, Georgia, for his defensive adjustment, the offensive line is the priority, aligning with the profile of Zabel. I also discussed negotiations to obtain choices while targeting line editors, but Zabel’s growing stock can keep Seattle at No. 18. With many best choices, the Seahawks can attack La Défense later, making Zabel the best choice to strengthen the offensive immediately.
This article can update with more choice of staff when they populate throughout the day, so look at this space and make your own forecasts in the comments!
