Seahawks' 2026 Mock Draft: Edge, Corner, Line, Backfield, Receiver

About this episode

Seahawks Mock Draft: Edge, Corner, Interior Line, Backfield Depth, and Receiver Upside

In this mock draft episode, the Seahawks make waves by trading down and up, acquiring multiple picks and addressing key positions. They start by trading down with the Titans, securing pick thirty-five and a fifth-rounder at one forty-two, then snag edge rusher Malachi Lawrence from Central Florida. In the second round, they add cornerback Keith Abney the second from Arizona State, filling a big hole outside.

The surprise trade-up to pick eighty-two with the Vikings brings nose tackle Domonique Orange from Iowa State, who plugs gaps up front and allows Jarran Reed and Byron Murphy to shift to three-tech. Later rounds see the addition of running back Demond Claiborne from Wake Forest and wide receiver Tyren Montgomery from John Carroll, a small-school beast with Division three All-American stats and Senior Bowl buzz.

This draft strategy hits edge, corner, interior line, backfield depth, and receiver upside, setting the Seahawks up smart for a shallow class while banking future picks.

It's April 6th. Welcome in. This is NFL News Today, where football meets AI. Seahawks fans, it's mock draft season for the 2026 NFL Draft, and this one's got Seattle Wheeling and Dealing from Pick 32. They trade down with the Titans, snagging Pick 35 in a 5th rounder at 142. Then grab edge-rusher Malachi Lawrence from Central, Florida right away. Dude 6'4, 250 pounds, explosive off the line, perfect to learn behind the Marcus Lawrence. Moving to the second round at Pick 64, they add corner-back Keith Abney the second from Arizona State. With Ric Wolling gone to Philly, this feisty-covers guy feels a big hole outside, competing with Nehemiah Pritchett while Devon Witherspoon slides. Around? Then comes the surprise trade-up to pick 82 with the Vikings, swapping their 96 and a 2027-4th for Nose Tackle, Dominique Orange from Iowa State.

Big citrus at 6'4, 325 pounds, plugs gaps up front, letting Jaronne Reed and Byron Murphy shift to 3-Tech, where they shine, keeping the D-line fresh. Later rounds bring running-back Demon Clayborn from Wake Forest at 142 and wide receiver Tyron Montgomery from John Carroll at 1. 80-Lang, Montgomery's a small school beast with Division III All-American Stats and Senior Bull Buzz, just a special team spark they lost with Darkay, Young. This hall hits edge, corner, interior line, backfield depth, and receiver upside, setting Seattle up smart for a shallow class while banking future. What a blueprint.
