12th Man Rising

● By Todd Vandenberg
The Seattle Seahawks need help on both sides of the ball and need to clear cap space this offseason. My first mock draft for 2025 accomplishes both and adds massive value to future drafts as well. As of the moment I'm writing this, the Seahawks were still $7 million over the cap. This includes the increase in the cap to $279 million, just announced this past Thursday. While they have several options to clear space, some could be a bit more painful than others. My mock mimics two of those suggested moves but adds value to the team as well. The Seahawks need reinforcements on the defensive line and at linebacker. They also need to add depth to the tight end group and the quarterback room. I think it's safe to say I speak for all 12s when I plead with John Schneider (please, for the love of all that is holy) to get some interior offensive linemen for this team. This mock draft addresses all of those needs.
