Seahawks Eye Speedy Cornerback Everette

It's March 23rd. This is NFL News Today, football coverage powered by AI.

The Seattle Seahawks are wrapping up their prospective valuations for the 2026 NFL draft,

zeroing in on players who fit their system. Perfectly. With just four picks available,

they're hosting more visits at their facility, including Georgia Cornerback Dale and Everett,

who's drawing attention. For his standout speed, Everett clocked a 4.38 in the

40 yard dash at the scouting combine. Second fastest among cornerbacks there.

He also earned a top athletic score and flashed quick moves and drills,

backing it up with 10 pass breakups and three picks last college season.

Fans and analysts see this as a smart move to add cornerback depth,

after losing Rick Woolen to the Eagles in free agency.

The Seahawks bring back 20 of their 22 starters from the Super Bowl winning squad,

but speed at corner could boost their versatile.

Secondary. That said, cornerback isn't the top priority.

Running back in interior offensive line are bigger holes.

They're replacing Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III with newcomers like

Emmanuel Wilson and George Halani, plus injured Zach Charbonne and the

Ryguards boss struggle last year. Teams like Seattle often balance these

needs by grabbing a project talent like Everett in rounds two or three,

freeing up the first round for a franchise running back or guard,

such as Penn State's Oliva Vega Iowan or Texas A&Ms chased by Santas.
