The Seattle Seahawks entered Friday with four picks combined between the second and third rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft. There was always the possibility of a trade in some capacity, and John Schneider came out swinging with a major trade.
Seattle gave up its No. 52 pick (received in the DK Metcalf trade) and the No. 82 pick in the third round to the Tennessee Titans in exchange for the No. 35 pick. The Seahawks used that new pick on South Carolina safety Nick Emmanwori, a tremendously athletic player who was part of the Gamecocks’ star-studded defense.
