On April 27th, the Seattle Seahawks passed on drafting any edge rushers in the 2026 draft, but now they're set to snag two undrafted free. Agents this week, Aiden Hubbard out of Northwestern and Marvin Jones Jr. from Oklahoma are the names making waves per team insiders. It's a low-risk move to beef up the pass rush without burning picks. Hubbard stands six feet four and a half inches tall, weighs 260 pounds with 32-inch arms. He notched 7.5 sacks last year in 2025 thanks to his quick feet, even if he needs to bulk up his power. He checks the boxes for head coach Mike McDonald's preferred build. Jones Jr. brings the speed element at six feet five inches, testing in the top percentiles for bursts and jumps. As a former five-star high school stud rang number two at his position back in 2022, he's got pro-level bloodlines and untapped upside, despite an uneven college run. We'll see this as the Seahawks prioritizing size and potential over instant starters

like some other prospects. They dodged paying premium draft prices for similar traits, betting on these guys to outperform their college tape under pro coaching. Smart play letting talent drop to them post-draft. Now it's on Hubbard and Jones to earn spots and revive that edge pressure, Seattle Craves heading into camp. From around the league, powered by AI, this is NFL News Today.
