It’s been a fairly quiet period in terms of news regarding NFL Draft prospects meeting with the Seattle Seahawks, but with just three weeks to go until festivities start in Green Bay, we’re starting to get a trickling of information pouring in.

The Draft Network’s Ryan Fowler reported on Wednesday that East Carolina cornerback Shavon Revel Jr is scheduled for an official pre-draft visit with the Seahawks in mid-April.

Upcoming 30 visits for ECU DB Shavon Revel Jr, source said.

• April 3/4: Dallas Cowboys

• April 7/8: Buffalo Bills

• April 8/9: Indianapolis Colts (includes medical re-check)

• April 12/13: Tampa Bay Buccaneers

• April 14/15: Seattle Seahawks

— Ryan Fowler (@_RyanFowler_) April 2, 2025

While Michigan’s Will Johnson is considered the consensus top corner in this year’s draft class, Revel Jr is not too far behind. It’s widely expected that he’ll be taken in the first or second round following three seasons at East Carolina.

The 23-year-old Revel Jr earned All-AAC Second-team honors in 2023 after recording 13 passes defensed, an interception, a fumble return touchdown, and four tackles for a loss. Having started 2024 off with a couple of interceptions (including a pick-six), Revel’s season and college career ended after just three games when he tore his ACL in practice.

At 6’2 and 194 lbs with 32 5/8” arms, his physical profile definitely matches that of several Seahawks corners over the years.

This Bleacher Report scouting report, done by current North Carolina Assistant Director of Player Personnel Cory Giddings, likens Revel to Riq Woolen.

In coverage, Revel’s length and straight-line speed are key assets. He excels in press coverage, using his long arms to disrupt receivers’ timing at the line of scrimmage and push them off their route. His ability to carry receivers deep is bolstered by his top-end speed and quick acceleration, which also aid him in recovery situations. Revel’s athleticism is evident in his smooth transitions and ability to sink his hips for his size, though he can leak extra steps when breaking on shorter routes. While he has the body control and positioning to make plays on the ball, his ball skills are slightly below average, as he struggles to secure interceptions consistently. In zone coverage, Revel’s eye discipline can waver, occasionally leading to missed threats underneath when he becomes too focused on the quarterback.

Revel’s physicality translates well to the run game, where he is willing and effective in taking on blockers and assisting in run defense. He uses his size and strength to shock and shed blockers on the edge, helping to contain running plays and maintain outside leverage. As a tackler, Revel is reliable and secure, utilizing his size to wrap up and drive through contact. While he’s not an enforcer in run support, he consistently fulfills his assignments and does his part in limiting gains.

Shavon Revel projects as an early-round pick with the potential to make an immediate impact as an outside cornerback. His length, speed, and physicality are ideal traits for defending big-bodied receivers on the outside and handling vertical routes. While his ball skills and eye discipline could limit his ability to generate turnovers, Revel’s ability to blanket receivers and disrupt plays at the line makes him a valuable asset. With further refinement, he has the ceiling to develop into a high-level starting cornerback at the next level.

GRADE: 7.6 (Potential Impact Player — 2nd Round)

OVERALL RANK: 45

POSITION RANK: CB7

PRO COMPARISON: Tariq Woolen

Now interestingly one of the negatives listed for Revel in that scouting breakdown is “Slightly below-average ball skills,” which I do not think is something we can say about Riq.

The ACL tear is by far the biggest concern with Revel in the immediate, hence the Colts are doing a “medical re-check” as part of their meeting. It’s not a super stacked cornerback class but Seattle’s outside cornerback position isn’t all that settled beyond 2025 given Woolen is on the last year of his contract.

As always, an official 30 visit does not mean the Seahawks are going to draft a particular player, but usually the Seahawks have at least a couple of draft picks and UDFAs make their way onto the roster following a formal visit, therefore these visits are always worth monitoring on the possibility that they do turn in that card.
