Our second Seattle Seahawks mock draft of 2023, this time with trades. Seattle has 4 picks in the top 51.
The Seattle Seahawks have a golden opportunity to upgrade their team in the 2023 draft. They have nine draft picks this year, including four in the top 51.
To begin, Seattle picks twice in Rounds (1 and 2). Seattle is on the clock for pick 5 and returns for pick 20. On Day 2, they make the 37th, 52nd, and 83rd overall selections. Their other picks are:
Round 4 – 123rd. Round 5 – 153rd and 156th, Round 6 – 198th, Round 7 – 237th.
That means there are plenty of opportunities to make deals.
We used the Pro Football Focus Draft Simulator. The program doesn’t allow for sham trades, so we didn’t just make deals without oversight.
Last year the Seahawks struck gold in the draft. They picked up bookend starting offensive tackles Charles Cross (1st round, 5th overall) and Abraham Lucas (3, 72). The team also added franchise running back Kenneth Walker (2, 41) and a shutdown cornerback Tariq Woolen (5, 153), among others.
Pacific Northwest Sports will put out several mock drafts with and without trades leading up to draft day on April 27. By posting compilation mocks, we will also give Seattle Seahawks fans a look at what the sports media think the team will do.
