The Seattle Seahawks are exploring options for a quarterback, despite having recently signed Sam Darnold and Drew Lock. General manager John Schneider confirmed that the team is open to drafting a quarterback, particularly with their multiple picks in the upcoming NFL Draft. NFL.com's latest mock draft predicts that the Seahawks will target Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers with their second-round selection (No. 52 overall), which they acquired from the Pittsburgh Steelers in the DK Metcalf trade. Ewers, who has shown promise at Texas with impressive stats, faced scrutiny over his ability to perform under pressure.
The Seahawks also need to address their wide receiver depth after the departures of key players like Tyler Lockett. While Ewers presents an interesting option for the future, some analysts question if he’s the right fit for Seattle's current roster needs, suggesting that using high draft capital on a quarterback might be misguided at this point.
