Seahawks 3-round 2026 NFL mock draft: Post NFL Combine edition
The Seattle Seahawks enjoyed a productive week at this year's NFL Scouting Combine. John Schneider and Mike Macdonald return from Indianapolis having gathered information for their approaches in free agency and the 2026 NFL draft. With the combine now officially in our rearview mirror, we've conducted a brand-new three-round Seahawks mock draft.
Round 1 (No. 32 overall): Brandon Cisse, CB, South Carolina
South Carolina cornerback Brandon Cisse has been connected to the Seahawks by analysts throughout the pre-draft process. Cisse had a good performance at the combine, leaping a 41 inch vertical and 10-foot-11 broad jump. The Gamecocks standout would be an excellent fit at cornerback in Mike Macdonald's defense.
Round 2 (No. 64 overall): Derrick Moore, EDGE, Michigan
Schneider loves adding pass rushers. Boye Mafe is a pending free agent and probably isn't returning. The aging DeMarcus Lawrence could be entering his final season in Seattle, and Uchenna Nwosu's future isn't guaranteed, either. Schneider will want to restock the cupboard. Derrick Moore didn't participate at the NFL Combine, but he's an athletic pass rusher who broke out at Michigan in 2025.
Round 3 (No. 96 overall): Kage Casey, IOL, Boise State
Guard Anthony Bradford is entering a contract year. The Seahawks may think ahead and try to grab a replacement since it appears the Christian Haynes pick did not work out. Kage Casey looked smooth during on-field combine drills. Casey is making the position switch to guard despite playing offensive tackle at Boise State.

Las Vegas Raiders fans are convinced Fernando Mendoza is the way to go at No. 1 pick
The NFL draft is two months away, however, for fans of the Las Vegas Raiders, the drama should be over.
The Raiders, of course, own the No. 1 overall pick in the April 23-25 draft.
Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza, the Heisman Trophy winner, had been the early favorite to be the team’s pick. But that went to the next level after his incredible play in a NCAA playoff win over Oregon. Mendoza was near perfect in the game.
He looks like the clear-cut choice. The Raiders badly need a young quarterback and Mendoza fits the bill perfectly, it seems.
Still, we our our readers. Yes, they agree. In a popular poll, about 90 percent of the poll takers agree that Mendoza is the choice.
So, it’s clear most fans aren’t on the fence about Mendoza. They aren’t eying anyone else. They don’t want the Raiders trade the pick for a load of compensation.
They want Mendoza.

Ciampa's AEW Debut Timeline Clarified
Fightful Select has debunked their previous report that Tommaso Ciampa could have debuted in AEW earlier than January 28. According to AEW sources directly, Ciampa was still under contract with WWE on January 21 and couldn't have appeared on "Dynamite" that week. The "Psycho Killer" revealed his debut came together at the last minute while on a family vacation in Texas, allowing him to appear on both "Dynamite" and "Collision" before winning the TNT Championship.
He was humbled and learned to scrap at Cal. Got the positive winning mindset from Cignetti and is now ready to deploy that with the Raiders. Also 6’5. Easy pick.
