The Biggest Seahawks 2024 Draft Rumor is Not About the Pick
Is this just a rumor, or is there something to it?. Seahawks 2024 Draft Rumors Spread Over Washington State. The NFL Draft is today and is honestly just about to start. Coverage for the 2024 NFL Draft officially kicks off at 3:30 pm Pacific time and all Seattle Seahawks fans are waiting for two different things. First, fans are waiting to see who the Seattle Seahawks will pick at #16. The two most likely picks will likely come from the University of Washington at either QB or Offensive Lineman, according to most experts. Qb Michael Penix Jr. and Offensive Lineman Troy Fautanu both have a strong relationship with their old head coach and Seahawks new Offensive Coordinator Ryan Grubb and are strong possibilities. Either way, I think the Seahawks would be making a strong choice at #16 for either player, but that is not what I am really excited about.
