The Seattle Seahawks only have four picks in the draft, barring a trade, so every evaluation and prospect visit must count. Luckily for the Seahawks <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/seahawks\/onsi\/why-seahawks-gm-john-schneider-deserves-nfl-executive-of-the-year-award-01kcvrysz21d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">general manager John Schneider is one of the best executives in the league<\/a> when it comes to drafting. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6i\">The Seahawks have started hosting some of the draft prospects to get to know them more and see how they fit. The team hosted a pair of solid cornerback prospects earlier, but then the Seahawks turned their attention to a solid offensive playmaker with local ties. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Seahawks Host Washington Running Back Jonah Coleman <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/01kkxt0q2x0gw7kj4kx5.jpg\" alt=\"Jonah Coleman in a 2025 game for Washington.\" title=\"Jonah Coleman in a 2025 game for Washington.\" width=\"3955\" height=\"3955\" class=\"undefined w-full w-full blur-[5px]\" q:id=\"6v\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Nov 8, 2025; Madison, Wisconsin, USA;  Washington Huskies running back Jonah Coleman (1) rushes with the football against Wisconsin Badgers linebacker Mason Posa (8) during the second quarter at Camp Randall Stadium.

The Seahawks aim to capitalize on the exceptional local talent from around the state of Washington. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"72\">Seattle was on board, bringing in former Eastern Washington star wide receiver and former Super Bowl MVP in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/seahawks\/onsi\/seahawks-news\/cooper-kupp-disrespect-led-to-enraged-incident-between-seahawks-rams-coaches\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Cooper Kupp in the last free agency<\/a>. The Seahawks also gave former Washington State Cougars offensive tackle Abraham Lucas a shot in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft and now their franchise right tackle. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"75\"> Coleman won\u2019t be the only running back to visit the Seahawks during the pre-NFL Draft process, but he is the first, and that is a statement. The Seahawks might already see something in Coleman, who is quickly rising on the draft boards. He has already acquired the attention of Schneider and the front office staff, and that doesn\u2019t go away. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"78\">\u2014\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/seahawks\/onsi\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Enjoy free coverage of the Super Bowl champions from Seattle Seahawks On SI<\/a>\u00a0\u2014<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7b\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/seahawks\/newsletter\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Sign Up For the Seahawks Daily Digest &#8211; OnSI\u2019s Free Seattle Seahawks Newsletter<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One week after the start of NFL Free Agency, all 32 teams are starting to make their shift&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":816976,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2081],"tags":[7,6,238,237,261,2635],"class_list":{"0":"post-816975","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-seattle-seahawks","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-nfl","10":"tag-seahawks","11":"tag-seattle","12":"tag-seattle-seahawks","13":"tag-seattleseahawks"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116244458159012933","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/816975","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=816975"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/816975\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/816976"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=816975"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=816975"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=816975"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
