Best NFL picks ever by draft slot? Seahawks got 11 of them

NFL: Arizona Cardinals at Seattle Seahawks

Steven Bisig-Imagn Images

Spanning decades, the Seahawks have an impressive list of big hits across the entire draft.

ESPN put the full weight of their offseason might into ranking the greatest draft pick ever at each selection, all the way to pick 262. Pretty cool exercise, and the Seattle Seahawks did quite alright for themselves.

Here’s the list!

6. Walter Jones, Tackle.


Ben Solak called him “one of the best offensive linemen of all time,” and he beat Julio Jones for this honor at number six.

36. Kevin Mawae, Center


The reason you might have never heard of him is because he won seven All-Pro or Pro Bowls in a row, and not a one of them for the Seahawks. Congrats, Jets.

47. Bobby Wagner, Linebacker


Not all heroes wear capes. Some of them played long enough to inspire two generations of football kids, even though he wore yellow twice.

75. Russell Wilson, Quarterback

85. Brandon Mebane, DT


I like this one because Mebane represents the part of the defense that fell most severely off the cliff in the waning seasons of the Legion of Boom, and turned into the worst position group on the field for years. He was, while not underrated, never the first guy listed during that era, but obviously a massive contributor.

A Wrinkle! 117. Steve Largent.


The greatest wide receiver in history was not actually drafted by the Seahawks. However, the Houston Oilers were unimpressed through four preseason games and traded him to Seattle for an 8th-round pick. Largent played exclusively for the Seahawks and owns every franchise receiving record. Seeing as how Seattle used a draft pick to acquire Largent in his rookie season, we are, by technicality, awarding Largent a place on this list.

133. Kam Chancellor, Safety


Bam bam.

155. Michael Sinclair, DE


Ironically, Sinclair is a significant player on this list because his draft slot, 155, is just one spot behind Richard Sherman, who’s not on the list. He lost out to Miami Dolphins linebacker Zach Thomas, for the following reason:

Thomas made the Hall of Fame in 2023 and represents all short kings, so I have to pick him here. But Sherman should make the Hall soon, and there’s a legit debate between the two.

I....would disagree, but believe it or not Thomas has a career Approximate Value of 148 and Sherman has 114. Thomas played two more years, so his average was actually higher as well.

Still, he didn’t interview as well.

170. Michael McCrary, DE


Alright.

225. J.R. Sweezy, Guard


This is very fun. See how much fun we’re having?

242. Malcolm Smith, Linebacker


Personally, I was hoping Chris Carson was going to make it as the lowest pick on the list for Seattle, but Smith’s presence as the Super Bowl MVP is well deserved.

Anybody else you feel should have earned a spot? Perhaps they were cowardly in not awarding Doug Baldwin best undrafted player ever? Sound off in the comments!

All-Pro Buccaneers tackle Tristan Wirfs could miss Seahawks game following knee surgery

NFC Wild Card Playoffs: Washington Commanders v Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Wirfs is expected to start the season on the PUP list, making him eligible to return against the Seahawks, but it’s not a guarantee he’ll play against them.

There’s some major injury news that could affect one of the Seattle Seahawks’ early regular season games.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive tackle Tristan Wirfs, universally regarded as one of the best linemen in the NFL, is projected to start the regular season on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list. Players are required to miss four games when placed on PUP and while they can use team medical and training facilities, they cannot participate in any practices.

Wirfs underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee earlier this week, according to ESPN. Multiple setbacks during offseason programs led to surgery instead of playing through it with a brace.

This is a big deal for the Buccaneers, as Wirfs is one of those super talents who’s the first player in NFL history to earn All-Pro honors at both tackle positions—he was First-Team All-Pro at right tackle in 2021 and then left tackle last season. It’s also very relevant news for the Seahawks, who host the Buccaneers in Week 5 on Oct. 5, the first week that Wirfs is eligible to make his season debut. Even if he’s activated off PUP there’s no guarantee he’ll immediately return to the field.

Tampa Bay has a high-powered offense that only got stronger with the addition of Emeka Egbuka to their wide receiver group, but that offensive line is immediately compromised with Wirfs’ absence. He’s only missed five games in his entire career and he’s seemingly on course to miss the first four of this year.

Let’s Chat: What are your all-time favorite regular season Seahawks wins?

San Francisco 49ers v Seattle Seahawks

We’ve done this before, so let’s do it again!

We’re continuing our summer trips down memory lane as we celebrate 50 seasons of Seattle Seahawks football.

Today’s discussion is all about your favorite regular season wins in franchise history. I’ve excluded the postseason for extremely obvious reasons, plus there’s a much larger pool of regular season football we’ve all watched. We did this topic a couple of years ago but why not recycle? There are new users in the comments section and potentially new answers to come!

The criteria is entirely up to you as long as the Seahawks actually won the game. If you found beauty in that 6-3 win over the Chicago Bears last season then I’m not going to push back on your answer. Did the Seahawks win on your birthday even though they weren’t in playoff contention? If so, that can be one of your favorite wins ever.

Once upon a time my favorite one was the 2005 overtime classic against the New York Giants, which was one of those games the Seahawks had repeatedly lost over the decades. They were on the precipice of defeat umpteen times, only for Jay Feely to smoke field goal after field goal after field goal. Isn’t that right, Jeremy Shockey? That was the greatest indicator that there was something magical about that team and their eventual Super Bowl run.

For pure entertainment in terms of back-and-forth classic, I actually preferred the 39-30 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers back in 2015 over the 41-38 shootout over the Houston Texans in 2017. The latter had a more dramatic ending but 2015 Russell Wilson was undeniably (to me) the best dual-threat version of Wilson we’d seen. Unfortunately Jimmy Graham was lost for the season in this game, but it did give us Doug Baldwin’s masterpiece.

#1: 2015 vs Steelers. Up by 2 in a wild back and forth game with 15 seconds to the 2 minute warning, needing 9 yards for a 1st down to give the Hawks a chance to run out the clock, Doug Baldwin takes a simple slant 80 yards to the house. This play gives me goosebumps everytime. pic.twitter.com/chAZvvauig

— hashtag MVGeno (@wrongopinionman) August 30, 2023

It was also Wilson’s first win as a starter in which the Seahawks allowed more than 24 points.

The 2012 season gave us “U mad, bro?” when Seattle rallied to shock the New England Patriots, which holds a special place in my heart. But how can you not relive spoiling Jim Harbaugh’s birthday and smashing up the San Francisco 49ers in a 42-13 annihilation? A playoff spot was on the line for Seattle and the 49ers had beaten the Seahawks three in a row under Jim.

I’d say this game (more than the Patriots or Chicago Bears wins) was the origin story of the Seahawks’ rise to a championship level team.

Your turn! Tell us your favorite Seahawks regular season wins ever.
