Every year before the NFL Draft, each team can host up to 30 draft prospects for isolated visits. These visits give teams the chance to cross off final boxes related to character and organizational fit. Prospect visits also give the fans an idea of what position their team is targeting heavily in that year's draft. For the Seahawks, the answer looks to be safety, cornerback, and running back. I’ll be taking a look at the names in each position group and giving a rundown on where you could expect them to be drafted.


  1. The Running Backs


The Seahawks have four running backs coming in for visits. I’ve already talked about Arkansas super athlete Mike Washington Jr. as a fit in a previous mock draft, so I’ll focus on the other three.


Most Seahawks fans are probably familiar with Washington’s Jonah Coleman, given his proximity. For those not familiar, Coleman followed Jedd Fish to Washington after a breakout 2023 for the Arizona Wildcats, where he rushed for 871 yards and five touchdowns. In two seasons with the Huskies, Coleman posted 1,818 yards and 25 touchdowns. He’s stout at 5-foot-9 and 228 lbs, allowing him to fight through contact, which is a big reason why he forced 174 missed tackles during his career. Coleman also has smooth hands and can catch the ball away from his body more consistently than most backs. Coleman is a likely day two pick and could be a Seahawk at pick 64 or 96.

The other two visits are smaller school prospects who will likely see their names called on late day three, if at all. Toledo’s Chip Trayanum is a journeyman who has made stops at Arizona State, Ohio State, and Kentucky, peaking with 390 yards and a touchdown as a sophomore. Trayanum found his footing in his final college season, rushing for 1,015 yards and 12 touchdowns. He’s another compact runner at 5-foot-11 and 227 lbs, but he’s a better athlete than Coleman and would present a good flier at pick 188.

Kennesaw State’s Coleman Bennett is another sixth-year journeyman, spending four years at Bucknell before a stop at Rice. Like Trayanum, Bennett's best year was his last, with 755 yards and four touchdowns. Bennett feels like a UDFA prospect given his age and lack of production, so look out for Seattle to bring him aboard quickly if his name isn’t called.


  1. The Safeties

Technically, the Seahawks have only brought in one safety prospect in LSU’s AJ Haulcy, but were grouping South Carolina's Jalon Kilgore in at safety as well. Kilgore played 695 snaps on defense in 2025, and 654 of those were either in the slot or in the box at linebacker, making him an interesting fit for Seattle given Nick Emmanwori’s success in the slot last season. Kilgore’s profile is worth an early draft pick, standing 6-foot-1 and 211 lbs, he posted 62 tackles and two interceptions while allowing a passer rating of just 68.1. This is a versatile player who will likely need some time to make the transition to full-time safety.

Haulcy is one of my favorite players in the draft. A true ballhawking free safety with 10 career interceptions, Haulcy spent time at both New Mexico and Houston before making his way to LSU. His closing speed is rare, and it allows him to clamp down on digs and crossers over the middle. He’s a solid run defender, though his missed tackle rate has increased as the level of competition has, capping out at 15.8% this past year. Haulcy’s risk-reward nature won’t be for everyone, but given the structure Seattle would place around him in the secondary, Haulcy's upside is well worth pick 62 if he’s still available.


  1. The Cornerbacks

So far, the Seahawks have brought in three players at corner who are likely to be selected in very different ranges of the draft. San Diego State’s Chris Johnson will be at play with pick 32, given his outstanding final year in college. Johnson allowed just 18 catches on 43 targets for 185 yards in 2025, and he picked off four passes as a cherry on top. His passer rating when targeted was just 16.1. His work against the run was also notable, with only eight missed tackles in his career and a miniscule 6.2% missed-tackle rate in 2024. Johnson would slot in nicely opposite Devon Witherspoon and give Seattle more upside than they’re getting with Josh Jobe.

Georgia’s Daylen Everette presents an option on day two. A corner that excels in press coverage, Everette has struggled with consistency in a conference packed with future pros at receiver, but he’s steadily developed in all facets of the game during his time in Athens. Everett cut his missed tackle rate from 19.7% to 8.8% and his reception percentage from 68.2% to 55.9%. Even with tape that can be hit or miss, Everett’s steady development and athletic testing will push him into the range of Seattle’s second pick at 62.

The third option is Toledo’s Andre Fuller. Overshadowed by his teammate and top safety prospect Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, Fuller turned in a fantastic senior season of his own for the Rockets. In coverage, Fuller allowed just 22 receptions on 52 targets and broke up nine passes. He’s a well-built player at 6-foot-1, 200 lbs, and a strong tackler. His athletic testing likely caught Seattle’s eye, and would make for a fun selection if they want to trade down from their third-rounder.
