Seahawks still have big Boye Mafe question after 2026 NFL Draft

The Seahawks drafted eight players after coming into the 2026 NFL Draft with just four picks. But none of those additions were along the edge.

Seattle now has to make a decision and target a player in free agency or in a trade to bolster their edge depth at the NFL level.

This isn't simply about taking swings on developmental UDFA's; this is about getting a player who can play legitimate snaps for Mike Macdonald's defense.

Henderson linked Seattle to veteran defensive end Dante Fowler Jr., who is still a free agent and could make a lot of sense along the edge.

Fowler was in Seattle for a free agent visit, so the two sides linking up post-draft after Seattle failed to address the position would make a lot of sense.

There is one massive question left for Seattle this offseason, and it's at the edge rusher position. How they'll address this will be fascinating, as the Super Bowl-contending Seahawks cannot go into 2026 without addressing this spot.
