Seattle Seahawks roster 'still needs upgrade' at two positions

The Seattle Seahawks did an excellent job during the 2025 NFL draft, especially with their first three selections. In Round 1, they added North Dakota State guard Grey Zabel, who should be a starter right away. They also brought in safety Nick Emmanwori and tight end Elijah Arroyo, who will also have key roles quickly.

Emmanwori is a star in the making who exploded at the NFL Combine. He's expected to give them their new enforcer in the secondary, and is said to be a perfect fit for Mike Macdonald's defense. Arroyo is a pass-catching tight end who will help them move on from Noah Fant.

Those additions leave them with limited holes on the roster, but that doesn't mean there are none. In fact, two of their top needs, according to Bleacher Report's Alex Ballentine, are still on the offensive line.

"However, they still need an upgrade at center and right guard. They didn't go all-in on offensive linemen and gave Darnold another weapon in Elijah Arroyo and drafted a developmental quarterback in Jalen Milroe." — Ballentine, Bleacher Report
