Seahawks' Grey Zabel: Lands with Seahawks
Rotowire
The Seahawks selected Zabel in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 18th overall.
Zabel is the latest North Dakota State lineman to make it to the league, joining the likes of Dillon Radunz, Cordell Volson and Cody Mauch. At 6-foot-6 and 312 pounds with 32-inch arms, Zabel played all over the line for the Bison with double-digit starts at both tackle spots and seven combined starts at both guard spots. The arm detail likely means Zabel will kick inside to guard, which fits nicely with how the Seahawks are currently constructed.
