Our Least Favorite Seattle Seahawks 2026 Draft Pick

"I'm just not convinced the value was right at 32, even if the need was obviously there and the scheme fit is valid. The pick seemed clearly motivated by the relatively destitute RB depth chart the Seahawks have right now, which is a dangerous game to play. I never like it when the argument in favor of drafting a player strays away from the player himself and gets into the state of the depth chart. Not a bad pick, but I'm not convinced it was a good one quite yet." — Brendon Nelson

Emmanuel Henderson Jr.

"Henderson comes to the Seahawks as a depth piece for their incredibly deep position group. They already have Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp and Rashid Shaheed ahead of him on the depth chart as starters. On top of that, second-year pro Tory Horton and Jake Bobo should make the roster ahead of him. Henderson is a good return specialist, but he will have to fight for a job against Shaheed and Price. At best, Henderson is the sixth-best wideout on the roster and is a likely healthy scratch on gamedays." — Jeremy Brener

Deven Eastern

"Seattle has a stacked defensive front, and it's hard to fathom that this project of sorts (who may have been available post-draft) will vie for much playing time as a rookie." — Russell Baxter

Michael Dansby

"My least favorite would be Michael Dansby, their final pick. Dansby has talent and could develop into a solid player, but the Seahawks already took two cornerbacks. That said, a late-round flier as the least favorite is a testament to the work John Schneider did." — Randy Gurzi
