The Seahawks mounted football's highest plateau in 2025, hoisting their second Lombardi Trophy in memorable fashion. They largely have the NFL draft to thank for their successes.

Perhaps the Seahawks can find ready-made replacements in the seven-round spectacle set to take over over the next few days.
