12th Man Rising

● By Lee Vowell
Celebrate, 12s! The 2024 NFL draft is over and the Seattle Seahawks have added eight new players to the team. Many of these may or may not make the team and most of them are likely not going to be early starters in their careers. That does not mean they won't help the team, though. But some parts of the organization are already looking ahead to next offseason. This includes the scouting department, and probably, general manager John Schneider. Drafts are built for the future and not only one-season success. There will be players in 2025 that will help the Seahawks be good, too, of course. The players below are somewhat based on current needs, but also future contracts. I do not have a quarterback being taken by Seattle as they still could be set in 2025 and quarterbacks have such a fluid potential. These players would help new head coach Mike Macdonald and general manager John Schneider be successful for several seasons.
