The Seahawks selected Emmanwori in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 35th overall.
ANALYSISEmmanwori (6-foot-3, 220 pounds) proved himself one of the most athletic defenders in recent memory with a 4.38-second 40-yard dash, 43-inch vertical jump and 138-inch broad jump while otherwise standing out at safety for South Carolina. Emmanwori was a highly productive three-year starter and could be an impact defender in the NFL, though the Seahawks already have two competent safeties in
Julian Love and
Coby Bryant.
