2025 NFL offseason grades: Draft, trades, more moves by team

This is my second Seattle Seahawks mock draft of the season. This one is after the NFL Combine, which is the last chance for prospects to increase (or decrease) their stocks. Obviously, Pro Days will happen, but they don’t have the same weight as the tests at the Combine.

However, this can change a lot depending on how Seattle behaves in free agency. The ideal world is to solve the needs in the FA and use the Draft to get the best talent available. Unfortunately, theory is different from practice. This article and mock draft was also conducted BEFORE the Seahawks’ decision to trade Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders and thus won’t include the extra pick at No. 92.

PS:. I used the PFF Simulator, so it was based on the Board created by them.

Let’s go!

Seattle Seahawks Picks in the 2025 Draft

So far, compensatory picks still “don’t exist”. So, we are projecting according to the OTC.

1st round (18);

2nd round (50);

3rd round (82);

3rd round (92 via Geno Smith trade, but not included in this mock draft)

4th round (sent in trade for Ernest Jones IV);

4th round – compensatory pick projected due to Damien Lewis’ departure (136);

5th round (sent in trade for Leonard Williams);

5th round – compensatory pick projected due to Jordyn Brooks’ departure (172);

6th round (sent in trade for Trevis Gipson);

6th round (received in trade for Darrell Taylor) – [186];

6th round – compensatory pick projected due to Bobby Wagner’s departure (211);

7th round (235);

Seattle Picks

I haven’t factored in the DK trade yet. As of this writing, it hasn’t happened yet and we don’t know what the value will be. This does include a hypothetical trade in which Seattle picks up an extra second-rounder and trades down from No. 18.

R1.32- Donovan Ezeiruaku, EDGE, Boston College;

R2.50- Jonah Savaiinaea, OG, Arizona;

R2.64- Quinn Ewers, QB, Texas;

R3.82- Billy Bowman, S, Oklahoma;

R4.96- Darien Porter, CB, Iowa State;

R4.136- Jackson Hawes, TE, Georgia Tech;

R5.172- Zeek Biggers, DT, Georgia Tech;

R6.186- Jackson Slater, C, Sacramento State;

R6.211- Tai Felton, WR, Maryland;

R7.235- Efton Chism III, WR, Eastern Washington;

R1.32- Donovan Ezeiruaku, EDGE, Boston College

The fans probably want an OL with the first pick. However, in this simulation, both the OLs and the highly talented players like LB Jihaad Campbell, TE Colston Loveland and TE Tyler Warren had already been chosen. I received a good offer from the Eagles and decided to go with it. With the cut of Dre’Mont Jones and the uncertainty about Uchenna Nwosu, I decided to reinforce the sector with Donovan.

Ezeiruaku had one of the best pass rush win numbers and an extremely productive year. His Combine solidified his stock and there is a possibility that he will leave before this pick. His tape is very good. I always say that a pass rush to be productive needs to beat the OL in three ways: inside, outside and through. Ezeiruaku has all these characteristics, with good bend and speed on the edge, excellent pass rush moves to attack from the inside and, with less mastery than the first two points, he can transform speed into strength.

R2.50- Jonah Savaiinaea, OG, Arizona

In my simulation, I imagined Seattle signing a big name for the iOL. This made me a little more relaxed about expecting a good option in the second round. Savaiinaea struggled against the speed of EDGEs, but his tape as a guard, as well as his projection, make him an excellent option.

He has the speed to make the necessary pulls, the strength to open up space in short-yardage situations and can mirror pass rushers well.

R2.64- Quinn Ewers, QB, Texas

Seattle could draft a QB earlier than that. Maybe even in the first round after the DK trade (or even the Geno trade). I’ve said a few times that my preferred option would be Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart, but he had already been selected early in the second round.

Ewers and Will Howard would be the next two options. Ewers had a down year after injuries. JS has praised Ewers in the past and he has the mobility and arm strength that catches the GM’s eye. With Geno still under contract, he would have the option to be refined to be a starter next year.

R3.82- Billy Bowman, S, Oklahoma

Bowman is an extremely intelligent and versatile player. He can line up in many different positions in Mike Macdonald’s defense. He plays close to the box and is aggressive against stronger blockers. He is very instinctive and smart to cover deep downfield. His biggest problem is some athletic limitations.

R4.96- Darien Porter, CB, Iowa State

One of the Iowa State players who shined during the Combine. A tall and extremely athletic CB. Porter doesn’t move like a 6’3 guy. However, he has some issues changing direction and is a former WR. He has such good athletic potential that it is extremely interesting to bet on him. Porter is also one of the best special teamers in the class.

R4.136- Jackson Hawes, TE, Georgia Tech

After watching his tape more carefully, he became one of my favorite picks for Seattle. He is not only the best blocker in this class, but one of the best in recent years. In terms of strength, athleticism and technique, Hawes is ahead of the other prospects.

His production as a receiver is limited, but he has shown that he has the tools to excel. It is impossible not to see a bit of Will Dissly in his style of play.

R5.172- Zeek Biggers, DT, Georgia Tech

His tests at the Combine were very good. He has the frame to be a good replacement for Jarran Reed as a 3-4 DE. The big problem is that he has a poor snap exit, which also makes his athletic ability suppressed. If Seattle can work on him, he would be another great steal.

R6.186- Jackson Slater, C, Sacramento State

Slater was on track to have a good Combine when he got hurt. He won’t test again until Pro Day in late March. However, I believe his numbers will be good, based on what we saw on tape. Especially if he is moved to center. He is very good reaching the second level and would be an incredible fit for Klint Kubiak’s scheme.

R6.211- Tai Felton, WR, Maryland

Based on what I saw on his tape, he shouldn’t be available this late in the Draft. He actually reminds me a lot of Tyler Lockett from his time at Kansas State. A fast player who can exploit gaps in zone coverage, mainly due to his intelligence. Good release packages, but a frame that can be hampered by more physical defenders. As mentioned for Porter, Felton is also a fantastic special teamer.

R7.235- Efton Chism III, WR, Eastern Washington

A reliable receiver with just 3 drops on nearly 150 targets in 2024. He’s a slot receiver and was a standout performer in the Shrine Bowl. At this point, he’s a great option to add to the roster.
