Add another top SEC name to the list of official 30 visits for the Seattle Seahawks.

On the heels of a report that the Seahawks will soon meet with former LSU tight end Mason Taylor, NFL insider Mike Garafolo revealed on Tuesday that the Seahawks are also expected to have a pre-NFL Draft visit with Georgia edge rusher Mykel Williams. Of course, there ain’t exclusivity when it comes to pre-draft visits, and there are two other NFC West teams also on Williams’ itinerary.

Williams recorded 14 sacks over three seasons on Georgia’s prolific defense, winning national championships in the 2022 and 2023 seasons. Even acknowledging his injury-hampered 2024 season, Williams was lost in the shuffle considering the embarrassment of riches the Bulldogs had across their defensive roster. With a relative lack of high-end productivity and accolades compared to his peers, the 20-year-old two-time All-SEC Second-team selection is thought to have major potential to be a premier pass rusher at a professional level.

Here’s the brief scouting synopsis from PFF:

Williams is a long, strong, versatile edge prospect whose motor is always running hot. His pass-rush profile and consistency (win percentage) are lower than ideal for a projected top-20 pick, but his floor as an elite run defender is so high, and his build is so alluring, that he’s worth taking the chance on in that range for a team running odd or even fronts.

Jermaine Johnson

[…]

Pros

—Great build for an edge player — weight and length are NFL-caliber

—Has a violent and fast arm-over/swimg move when attacking inside

—Good understanding of the advantages of his arm length

—First-step is explosive and can cover a ton of ground

—Great motor that plays to the whistle

—Strong, reliable run defender who can stack blocks/anchor well from a 4i to a 7-tech

Cons

—Consistently one of the last linemen out of his stance

—Hands are active but could be more purposeful and precise

—Must develop more counters

—Eyes for the ball could improve

Williams has positional versatility across the defensive line but otherwise projects as an edge rusher. Seattle doesn’t have a pressing need for 2025 given the current roster, but that doesn’t mean the team won’t keep looking for ways to improve at some of its stronger positions.
