NFL News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — Seahawks Trade Down in Barnwell's Mock Draft. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
On April 6th, ESPN writer Bill Barnwell dropped a wild mock draft for the 2026 NFL draft, but with a twist, every single pick gets traded. No one keeps their spot. He's got the Super Bowl champ Seattle Seahawks sitting at Pick 32, shipping it out for a better deal down the road. In this scenario, Seahawks GM John Schneider swaps Pick 32 to the quarterback starved Cleveland Browns. In return, Seattle grabs Pick 39, 70, and 149 that nets them way more ammo for days two and three while only sliding back seven spots. Fans see Schneider as a lot to trade down here. The Seahawks are down to just four picks total after dealing away their fourth and fifth rounders for Whiteout Rashid Shaheed at the deadline. It's classic Schneider. He's traded down five times since taking over. He even has a solid vibe with Browns GM, Andrew Berry. Last year in the 2025 draft, they linked up in round five where Cleveland moved up for
Colorado QB shader Sanders and Seattle flipped. Those picks into receiver Tory Horton and Lyme and Bryce Cavaldo. This setup gives Schneider more shots at the board without much risk. As the 2026 draft heats up, keep eyes on these teams wheeling and dealing for that edge. That's the story for today. Jennifer News Today, Driven by AI.
