Falcons Add Depth at Offensive Tackle, Acquire Michael Jerrell From Seahawks for 2027 Pick
The Seahawks traded tackle Michael Jerrell for a 2027 conditional seventh-round pick, signaling confidence in their improved offensive line depth after preseason evaluations.
- On August 26, 2025, the Seattle Seahawks traded offensive tackle Michael Jerrell to the Atlanta Falcons for a conditional 2027 seventh-round pick, per NFL Network reporter Tom Pelissero, hours before final 53-man rosters were set.
- Preseason grades for the offensive line showed strong performance, with rookie Grey Zabel anchoring the interior and bolstering Seattle's depth.
- Jerrell entered the offseason as a 2024 third-round pick who appeared in 16 games with 167 offensive snaps and 67 special-teams snaps as a rookie, and was projected to make Seattle's final roster prior to the trade.
- The Seahawks framed the move as a sign of confidence in their tackles, coinciding with roster trimming that included releasing rookie running back Damien Martinez on August 26, 2025.
- Given Sam Darnold's need for protection, the Seahawks value offensive-line depth as Charles Cross and Abe Lucas are decent but not elite, while Falcons tackle Kaleb McGary's absence increases their tackle demand.
