Pick 35: Nick Emmanwori

His shell be known as Lil-Kam from now on

Yes! This is the guy I thought they would get at 18. Schneider and staff have their "A" game on in this draft. They are 2/2 so far in my mind.

This pick makes me happy in pants.

LFG!!!!!!!

He has the size of Kam but speed of Earl T. I saw him being compared to Kyle Hamilton of the Ravens. I knew MM would want to grab him if he had the chance. Glad they did.

Still Lil-Kam to me.

JS knocking it out of the park

This was not a JS pick. It was an MM pick. My guess is MM saw Emmanwori there in the second and told JS to do what he had to to get him. Emmanwori is the Hawks' version of Kyle Hamilton.

Still Lil-Kam to me.

Fair enough. Lil Kam has it on potential but Kam has it as history.

 

[Appyhawk]

We're on the clock at #50...

In my book, Kam was one of our very very best. Naming after Kam is an honor and a compliment

 

[Fresno Hawk]

Now this kind of pick gives me a boner. But I'm more of a defensive guy anyways.
Great pick.

 

[Mistashoesta]

Now we're cooking!

 

[Kamcussionator]

Wonder where he's going to play. Bryant and Love were holding it down last year.

 

[glenwo2]

2 solid picks so far. Can't say I'm blown away by either but not unimpressed either. Like that this guy knows how to wrap and actually tackle.

Maybe that's what we need :

Solid picks, not superstars.

 

[Atradees]

This is sweet. John's reading dot net. Ty.

 

[CouchLogic]

 

[James in PA]

MM the mad scientist will get the most out of this guy. They don't make this trade if MM doesn't envision greatness.

 

[Atradees]

Just amazing we went for it and got him.

• Round 2, Pick 35 (from Tennessee): Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina

Analysis from USA TODAY Sports' Nate Davis: He'll immediately remind Seattle fans of former "Legion of Boom" mega safety Kam Chancellor, though Emmanwori is more athletic. An All-American in 2024, Emmanwori has size (6-3, 220) comparable to Chancellor's – yet ridiculous physical metrics After running a 4.38 40 and posting a vertical jump of 43 inches, he was one of the combine's 2025 stars. And given that speed, maybe not a surprise he returned half of his four picks last season for TDs. The Seahawks defense is quickly rounding into the physical form second-year Mike Macdonald wants.

Go watch some of the Ravens games from 2023 to see how Mike used Kyle Hamilton in his defense.

I anticipate he'll use Nick Emmanwori the same, or in a similar way.

Coby Bryant is going to see his snaps go down.

Not a fan at all at #35, especially not giving up a third-rounder for him.
