Well, surprise, SURPRISE! The Seattle Seahawks 2022 NFL draft class has been ranked the third-most impactful overall by CBS Sports heading into the 2022 season.
Chris Trapasso took a close look at all 32 teams and put together his list of rookie classes he believes will have the most impact this year. As far as Seattle’s class, he had the following to say . . .
“(Charles) Cross is the instant starter at left tackle, and he’s a smooth-operating pass protector. (Ken) Walker was tied with Isaiah Spiller as my RB1 in this class, and (Coby) Bryant was one of the longest, most experienced outside corners in the class.”

“Then there’s the two edge rushers — I’m glad they addressed that spot, a blatant weak-link on defense,” Trapasso continues. “(Boye) Mafe is older but got better each season as a pass rusher and has serious juice bending the edge. (Tyreke) Smith was one of the most productive, refined edges in the entire class — yes, you read that right — over the past two seasons at Ohio State. He had no business being available in Round 5.”
Only the Chiefs’ and Giants’ draft classed ranked higher than the Seahawks’.
