The Seattle Seahawks are likely to make further moves in the offseason of 2023. This is especially true given the number of available roster spots on their depth chart. Of course, they can do so through the draft. Here we’ll look at which rookie prospects the Seahawks will draft with each of their picks in the 2023 NFL Draft. In 2022, the Seahawks made a trade with the Denver Broncos. That sent Russell Wilson in exchange for multiple picks and players, which many consider as one of the biggest heists in NFL history. This trade has already proven beneficial for Seattle. They acquired Denver’s first and second-round draft picks in 2022, and they will continue to benefit in 2023. One guy who has been on many Seattle fans’ radars is Jalen Carter. He is considered to be the most controversial player in this year’s draft. With uncertainty surrounding the first four picks, including which quarterbacks or defensive players will be chosen, there is a good chance that Carter will still be available when the Seahawks make their pick at number five. Last December, after winning the SEC championship by defeating LSU, Carter was expected to be picked within the top two. However, a poor showing in the College Football Playoff, a tragic car accident that resulted in fatalities, and a disappointing pro day performance have now put Carter in danger of being passed over by teams. Will the Seahawks still roll the dice on him? Or will they move on?
