        Seahawks Grab High-Upside S Nick Emmanwori

        The Seahawks selected S Nick Emmanwori with the third pick of the second round. Emmanwori might be the most athletic safety to enter the league. He rocked a 4.38-second 40 time at the Combine, at 6'3 and 220 pounds. Emmanwori also delivered a 98th-percentil vertical, 99th-percentile broad jump, and even an 85th-percentile performance in the bench press. And Emmanwori delivered on the field as well. He started all three seasons at South Carolina and led two of those teams in tackles. Emmanwori also snagged 6 INTs over the past two years. That included 4 in 2024, two of which he returned for TDs. Pro Football Focus graded him 16th in coverage last season among 200 FBS safeties who played at least 200 snaps.

        2025 Fantasy Football Impact

        Emmanwori likely replaces Coby Bryant in the lineup to play next to Julian Love. Both look like safeties who can play multiple roles, seeing time in the box as well as lining up in deep coverage.

        Shane and I talked recently on our podcast previewing DB prospects about the extreme upside that Emmanwori carries into the league. It's a bit disappointing that he fell out of Round 1, but going 35th overall doesn't make him less enticing.

        Expect Emmanwori to land inside the top 24 DBs in our 2025 IDP rankings.

        Dynasty Impact

        Emmanwori climbed to No. 3 in my recent update to the IDP rookie rankings. LB Carson Schwesinger probably passed him by going first in Round 2, but expect Emmanwori to remain in that range -- across IDP formats.
