Nice!
New: It's mock draft SZN. The #Seahawks only have four picks in the 2026 NFL Draft. So, this mock begins with a trade.
First pick after the trade: Missouri edge Zion Young. www.nytimes.com/athletic/708...

New: My #Seahawks notes from the NFL Scouting Combine on John Schneider’s new approach to scouting the drills, battling to keep the Super Bowl MVP, the possibility of keeping the secondary intact, White House visit + more www.nytimes.com/athletic/707...
Seahawks moves:
• Tendered exclusive rights free agents safety Ty Okada and running back George Holani.
Keeps both players around for 2026
New: The #Seahawks haven't yet received an invitation to the White House. When it comes, Mike Macdonald says, they'll "address" whether they're going to attend. www.nytimes.com/athletic/707...
New: John Schneider has quite the puzzle to put together this offseason. He wants to keep everyone and go for a 2nd straight Super Bowl, but that’s unrealistic.
Between the 2022 draft class + Rashid Shaheed the #Seahawks have some decisions to make. www.nytimes.com/athletic/706...
New, from Indy: John Schneider often uses the NFL Scouting Combine to chat with agents and folks from other teams. A topic during those talks: contract markets.
Here's a look at the RB, WR, CB markets & how they may impact the #Seahawks moves. www.nytimes.com/athletic/706...
Programming note: Recording a new #SeahawksMan2Man podcast today, responding to questions and voicemails about the offseason. Hit us here (DMs open as well) or leave a voicemail at 206-705-3821. @ckidd206.bsky.social and I will get to everything on the show.
Thanks for the luv.
New: The #Seahawks intend to repeat as Super Bowl champs. That’s hard to do, of course.
There are several obstacles in their way, starting with having a new offensive coordinator. Keeping the roster together won’t be easy, either. www.nytimes.com/athletic/704...
Paul Allen’s estate has begun the process of selling the Seattle Seahawks
New story: Ranking the #Seahawks unrestricted free agents. Seattle’s 2022 draft class was a franchise-altering haul. Now a bunch of those guys are due for paydays, headlined by Riq Woolen and Super Bowl MVP Ken Walker III. www.nytimes.com/athletic/704...
🚨 NEW #SeahawksMan2Man pod 🚨

The Seahawks' championship parade will be Wednesday
New: On this night of tequila-drinking, beer-sipping, dancing, hugging, rapping, partying and selfie-snapping, the #Seahawks Dark Side defense became immortal.
They knew they were too much for the Patriots offense. They showed it in the Super Bowl. www.nytimes.com/athletic/703...
Programming note: We’re record a new #SeahawksMan2Man podcast — I just have no idea when lol. But we do wanna hear from you. Reply here, leave a voicemail at (206) 705-3821 or shoot us a DM. We’ll get to everything on the show (hopefully recording soon).
Thanks for the luv. @ckidd206.bsky.social
New: The Seahawks are Super Bowl champions because they blocked out the noise and focused the mission. That's why they're the M.O.B. -- Mission Over Bullshit.
The mission is complete. This is the story of how they got it done. www.nytimes.com/athletic/703...
Another LOB-era to MOB-era connection at the Super Bowl: Ricardo Lockette linking up with Dareke Young.
Ricardo, an HBCU grad, wore 83 and made a name on special teams. Dareke Young, also a DII college grad, wears 83 now & is a valuable special teamer
Seahawks moves for the Super Bowl:
• elevated running backs Cam Akers and Velus Jones Jr.
Seahawks are listing Robbie Ouzts as questionable for the Super Bowl. No one else has a game designation, including Nick Emmanwori, who practiced today.
Seahawks in good shape for Sunday
For Seahawks fans coming to the Bay for the Super Bowl, I do have copies of my Legion of Boom-era Seahawks book on me, ready to sign for those interested.
Just hit me up (DMs are open) and we’ll make it happen!
