The league new year officially kicked off Wednesday and teams are preparing for the 2026 NFL Draft, which will take place in Pittsburgh on April 23-25.

Thanks to their Super Bowl win over the Patriots, the Seahawks will have the 32nd pick in the first round, and picks No. 64 and 96 in Rounds 2 and 3, respectively. The Seahawks currently have only four total picks, the aforementioned picks in the first three rounds, as well as Cleveland's sixth-rounder, which they received in a 2024 trade that sent center Nick Harris and a seventh-round pick to the Browns. The Seahawks traded their fourth and fifth-round picks to the Saints in exchange for receiver and return specialist Rashid Shaheed, while Seattle's original sixth-round pick went to Jacksonville in 2024 in exchange for defensive lineman Roy Robertson-Harris.

Here is a look at the current first-round draft order:

1. Las Vegas Raiders

Dane Brugler, The Athletic

Pick: Brandon Cisse, CB, South Carolina

"The Seahawks plucking another Gamecocks defensive back in this year's draft would be a fun story. But more importantly, Cisse would give Seattle much-needed cornerback depth, especially if Josh Jobe and Riq Woolen both depart in free agency."

Danny Kelly, The Ringer

Pick: Avieon Terrell, DB, Clemson

"With Riq Woolen and Josh Jobe set for free agency, the Seahawks look to restock the shelves at cornerback. Terrell is a ferocious, high-energy defender who helps to set the tone for his teammates and brings the versatility to play both outside and in the slot. He's sticky in coverage, brings effort as a run defender, and flies in like a bat out of Hades as a blitzer. He should fit right in on Seattle's defense."

Garrett Podell, CBS Sports

Pick: Brandon Cisse, CB, South Carolina

"Several defensive backs from the Seahawks' "Dark Side" defense left in free agency, including Tariq Woolen and Coby Bryant. Cisse offers ideal NFL size for a cornerback, along with the speed and agility to match. He trusts his vision and top-tier closing speed to shrink throwing windows and make plays on the ball, which Mike Macdonald will love."

Nick Baumgardner, The Athletic

Pick: Jermod McCoy, CB, Tennessee

"McCoy told reporters at the combine he was healthy enough to work out but opted not to anyway. This, from a player who has not lined up for a snap since 2024. He's a first-round talent, but his situation feels a little like that of Will Johnson's last year. McCoy could slide."

Michael Middlehurst-Schwartz, USA Today

Pick: Colton Hood, CB, Tennessee

"Other than running back, corner might be the only spot where the defending champs have some actual reimagining to do. Hood's physical approach to coverage and run-stopping should make him a natural fit for Mike Macdonald's group."

Max Chadwick, Pro Football Focus

Pick: Colton Hood, CB, Tennessee

"Devon Witherspoon may have been the NFL's highest-graded cornerback this season, but the Seahawks still need more help at the position, as both Josh Jobe and Riq Woolen are free agents. Hood's 80.3 PFF coverage grade in 2025 ranked sixth among SEC cornerbacks."

Bucky Brooks, FOX Sports

Pick: Brandon Cisse, CB, South Carolina

"The athletic perimeter defender is the perfect complement to Devon Witherspoon. Cisse's instincts, awareness, and competitiveness would enable him to hold his own in battles with WR1s."
