It is officially the 2026 offseason, and the "Steel City" draft in Pittsburgh is officially in the books. The energy in the Pacific Northwest is at an all-time high. After watching over 800,000 fans flood the North Shore of Pittsburgh for the draft, the Seattle Seahawks emerged not just as the reigning world champions, but as a team intent on building a dynasty.
This is the era of "The Dark Side" defense. With Mike Macdonald entering his third season as head coach, the Seahawks have become the standard for modern NFL excellence. Following a historic 2025 campaign that ended with a parade in downtown Seattle, GM John Schneider used the 2026 draft to reload a defense that dominated the league and found an explosive new weapon to keep the offense among the NFL's elite.

The "Steel City" Draft: Seahawks 2026 Highlights
The Seahawks entered Pittsburgh as the final pick of each round but remained aggressive, making 8 selections to fortify a roster that committed zero turnovers in the 2025 postseason.
Round | Pick | Player | Position | School |
1 | 32 | Jadarian Price | RB | Notre Dame |
2 | 64 | Bud Clark | S | TCU |
3 | 99 | Julian Neal | CB | Arkansas |
5 | 148 | Beau Stephens | G | Iowa |
6 | 199 | Emmanuel Henderson Jr. | WR | Kansas |
7 | 236 | Andre Fuller | CB | Toledo |
Draft Analysis:
- The New Lightning: At #32 overall, the Seahawks shocked the league by selecting Notre Dame’s Jadarian Price. A home-run hitter with elite vision, Price is expected to form a devastating 1-2 punch with Kenneth Walker III.
- The Secondary Reload: Staying true to the "Dark Side" identity, John Schneider drafted three defensive backs, headlined by Bud Clark (#64) and Julian Neal (#99). Both bring the "Seahawk through and through" physicality that Mike Macdonald demands.
- Trench Depth:Beau Stephens (#148) adds 320 pounds of "mauler" energy to the interior offensive line, a key area of focus for new Offensive Coordinator Brian Fleury.
