Brendan Sorsby's Agent Called Him "The First Overall Pick" and Seahawks Fans Need to See Why

Alright, 12s, buckle up because the NFL offseason just got a whole lot more interesting, and our beloved Seahawks better be paying attention. There's a new name buzzing around the league, a quarterback named Brendan Sorsby, who is officially applying for the supplemental draft. And let me tell you, his agent, Ron Slavin, is not holding back on the hype. Speaking on 105.3 The Fan, Slavin threw out a "first overall pick" comparison for Sorsby, and when you hear the details, you'll understand why this guy needs to be on Mike Macdonald and Brian Fleury's radar, like, yesterday.

The Clock is Ticking: Supplemental Draft Process in Hyper-Speed

So, here's the deal, this supplemental draft thing moves fast. Like, really fast. Teams are going to have a "short window" to evaluate Sorsby before deciding if they're gonna spend a 2027 draft pick on him. Slavin's already got the logistics locked down to make it efficient. Since Sorsby's from Dallas, they've got all the facilities right there for workouts. Slavin plans to put together a Pro Day so teams can come meet with him, and he’s probably going to have Dr. Daniel Cooper handle the physical. That info then gets distributed to all 32 teams. It’s a whirlwind, but Slavin sounds confident, saying, "it’s a short window, but we’ll make it happen just because it’s really easy to make things efficient in Dallas." You know our scouting department needs to be all over this, making sure we get the full picture.

Forget What You Know, This Guy's an "Elite Athlete" with Brett Favre Moxie

Now, let's talk about why Slavin is so fired up. First off, off the field, he claims Sorsby is a saint. "If you go [by] a human being, he’s the first overall pick," Slavin

stated, adding, "He’s a great kid. There’s nothing that you’re ever going to have to worry about him off the field." No app drama, no personality issues he thinks, which is always a relief, right? But it's on the field where it gets wild. Sorsby is listed at 6'3, 235 pounds. Slavin believes he'll run in the 4.4s for the 40-yard dash. Seriously, a QB that size running that fast? Plus, his "arm talent is ridiculous." The guy can throw from "all the different arm angles." Slavin highlighted Sorsby's games against TCU and others, noting he was "running away from DBs who ran in the 4.5s." That's not just fast for a QB, that's fast, period. Slavin called him an "elite athlete" and a "late bloomer," explaining that Sorsby shot up 12 inches after being 5'3" in high school. He believes Sorsby's only gonna get better as he settles into his body. And for the kicker? Slavin compared his personality and moxie to none other than Brett Favre, adding that his arm angles reminded him of the legendary QB. Can you even imagine that kind of fire in a Seahawks uniform?

What's Next for the Emerald City's QB Future?

Our current guy, Sam Darnold, is holding down the fort, and we've got weapons like Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed, and Cooper Kupp. But you know the deal, you never stop looking for the next great QB. This kind of talent, popping up out of nowhere, with such a glowing endorsement and physical traits that scream "elite," is exactly what our scouts need to be dissecting. The coming weeks will be crucial for all 32 teams to get their intel on Sorsby. Will the Seahawks spend a 2027 draft pick on him? We need to keep our eyes glued to this situation, because if Slavin is even half right, Sorsby could be a game-changer for someone's future. Let's hope our boys in the front office are ready to make a move!
