2023 NFL draft: 13 potential safety targets for the Seahawks

On paper the Seahawks look like the last team in the NFL that would need to draft a safety this year. With Quandre Diggs, Jamal Adams and Julian Love likely starting they definitely have the strongest and most expensive safety room in the league. However, Seattle’s front office has already met with several safety prospects in the 2023 draft class. It also sounds like they will be deploying a lot more three-safety sets, so we definitely can’t rule it out.

Here are 13 potential safety targets for the Seahawks in the draft, including the four who they have held official meetings with.
