Pick No. 32 And A Championship Ring: What's Next For The Seahawks In 2026?
Let's pump the brakes for a second and just soak this in. The Seattle Seahawks are Super Bowl champions. Sam Darnold is a Super Bowl champion quarterback. The 12s are still celebrating in the streets. And now, with the confetti barely swept up from Lumen Field, it's time to talk about what comes next: the 2026 NFL Draft and that pick at No. 32.
Champions Get To Think About the Future
This is the wild part about winning it all in February. You're still riding the high, still watching highlights of Sam Darnold's 202-yard performance and that insane pick-six from Uchenna Nwosu, but the front office is already looking ahead. Mike Macdonald's vision for the Seahawks has been realized, and now the question becomes: how do you stay on top?
The mock draft experts are already weighing in on what Seattle might do with that No. 32 pick. There's no shortage of opinions out there, but the real question is what Brian Fleury and the rest of the coaching staff think they need. You've got Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed, and Cooper Kupp at receiver. Sam Darnold under center. The foundation is there. So where does this team build next?
Running It Back, But Building Smarter
The offseason narrative so far has been about familiarity. Some familiar faces are returning, and the newest additions are coming in. Cody White re-signed with the team. It feels like an organization that believes in what it built, which makes sense given that it just won a championship.
But the draft never stops. Teams that win championships don't just rest on their laurels. They get smarter. They find value. They think about depth, rotation, and the future. That No. 32 pick is going to matter, and the mock drafts are already trying to predict where the Seahawks go.
What's on the Board at 32?
The experts have their theories, and you can bet Seahawks fans have theirs too. The beauty of the draft is that every team values things differently. Some see a need at running back. Some see depth along the defensive line. Others think receiver or secondary talent could make a difference down the line.
One thing's for sure: this team earned the right to be picky. Champions get to build their rosters the way they want. The Seahawks have that luxury now. What they do with pick No. 32 could define whether this Super Bowl run is a one-year wonder or the start of something special.
