Happy Thanksgiving 12’s! As the Seattle Seahawks continue to make the playoff push in the final six weeks of the season, the college football season is heading towards the final week of the regular season.
With some big games already in the books on Friday, Saturday has some of the biggest games of the year, and we’re gonna take a look at four more prospects I think the Seahawks should be keeping an eye on, come draft season.
Isaiah Sategna, Wide Receiver, Oklahoma

The Oklahoma Sooners are a home win away against lowly LSU from likely hosting a first round playoff game. About 80% of their success this season is thanks to one of the top defenses in the country, but the offense has been Sategna or bust.
A three year player at Arkansas before transferring to Oklahoma, Sategna has been a revelation for the Sooners, with 56 receptions for 827 yards and six touchdowns. While playing mostly on the outside at Oklahoma, the 5-10 182 lbs wideout has the potential to be an explosive slot receiver at the NFL level.
A deep threat or a slant, turned home run type of receiver, Sategna is a very interesting day two option in the draft for Seattle. Even with Tory Horton and the likely extension for Rasheed Shaheed, there’s always room for a guy like Sategna.
Dillon Thieneman, Safety, Oregon

If not for Caleb Downs, who will be a top seven pick in the upcoming draft, Thieneman is the next best safety in this class. Another talented player, another transfer, Dillon was a very good player on a bad Purdue team, before transferring to Oregon and becoming a great player. The 6-0 205 lbs safety has evolved into one of the most versatile pieces on the defensive chess board in college football.
A tackling machine with over 200 tackles in two years at Purdue, the numbers aren’t the same this year for Oregon, but that doesn’t tell the story. With the ability to play both safety spots and in multiple looks, teams have just stayed away, giving him the “Earl Thomas” treatment.
With Coby Bryant a pending free agent, and Julian Love health being a question this year, it makes sense for Seattle to look at the safety spot again, especially with how Mike Macdonald’s scheme shows their value to this team. A future with Thieneman and Nick Emmanwori is an exciting duo, and I’d be fine with Thieneman as the pick in the late first round.
Jaishawn Barham, Linebacker, Michigan

Another powerful and talented linebacker out of Michigan, I wonder if this is the year Macdonald takes a Wolverine for his defense.
Barham is a two year starter at Michigan who has 10 tackles for a loss and four sacks so far this season. Injuries have limited his playing time and ability this season, but all the tools are there for Barham to become an outside linebacker and edge rusher combo at the next level.
We’ll see what he can do against the defending national champion Ohio State.
T.J. Parker, Edge, Clemson

While I strongly believe that Seattle will be aggressive in the trade market for an edge rusher, in the event they don’t, I expect to see an edge draft selection in the first three rounds.
If Seattle wants to take a big swing, T.J. Parker may be worth the risk. Before the season started, Parker was a potential #1 overall pick and Clemson was the betting favorite to win the national championship. Fast-forward to Thanksgiving, and Clemson may be moving on from Dabo Swinney and Parker has become an afterthought.
After 11 sacks and 19.5 TFL’s in 2024, Parker has disappeared, with only two sacks and 6.5 TFL’s in 11 games in an ugly 2025 season for Clemson. With everything turning toxic and rotten at Clemson, you have to wonder how much that plays into the brutal season by Parker.
The talent and 2024 tape shows a first round guy, but 2025 looks like a player who may be lucky to make it in the NFL. If he falls deep enough into day two, I wonder if John Schneider and Macdonald would be willing to take a risk and see if they can bring back that 2024 version of Parker that was so special.
