Seahawks and First-Time Coach Macdonald: Will He Lead the Team to Success in 2024?

Seahawks focus on the trenches in 2024 NFL Mock Draft: Seattle selects two top-100 players

The Seattle Seahawks ended the 2023 season with a 9-8 record, marking their 11th time in the past 12 years under Pete Carroll with a .500-plus record. Despite their success, the team parted ways with Carroll and hired first-time head coach Mike Macdonald. The offseason has been relatively quiet for the Seahawks, with Geno Smith remaining as the starting quarterback and Sam Howell brought in to compete after Washington let him go. It will be intriguing to see how Macdonald leads the team in his first year.

In terms of team needs, the Seahawks are looking for help at positions such as IOL, LB, S, EDGE, DL, and TE. They have several draft picks for the 2024 NFL Draft, including Pick 16 in the first round and Pick 81 in the third round (from the Saints via the Broncos), along with several other picks in later rounds. For more draft coverage, fans can tune into “With the First Pick” podcast on CBSSports.com with NFL Draft analyst Ryan Wilson and former Vikings general manager Rick Spielman for in-depth analysis twice a week leading up to the draft.

As April approaches and so does the 2024 NFL Draft, fans will be eager to see how Macdonald addresses these team needs and whether he can improve upon last season’s performance. The draft will take place from April 25-27 in Detroit.
