The Seattle Seahawks made eight selections in the 2026 NFL Draft, and none of them were on an EDGE Rusher. I wouldn’t call this shocking, but I would at least say it’s notable, given the current roster for the team. DeMarcus Lawrence is 34 and a strong retirement candidate post-2026, and Uchenna Nwosu and Derick Hall are in contract years.

The team could sell the farm to address this with a superstar, trading multiple high picks for Myles Garrett or Maxx Crosby. They could also kick the can down the road with free agent signings on cheap-ish veterans like Jadeveon Clowney or Dante Fowler. But what are the other options? Can the team make a modest trade for someone good, but not elite?
