Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider doesn’t agree with the narrative that the 2025 NFL Draft is a weak quarterback class.<\/p>\n
Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders are considered the two best quarterbacks, and Jaxson Dart is also rumored to be a first-round pick potentially. Yet, some analysts have questioned if there are quality starting NFL quarterbacks in the 2025 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n
However, Schneider thinks there are plenty of quality quarterbacks as he says it all depends on the player and system they go into.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n \u2022 <\/p>\n <\/template><\/p>\n “I’d be careful when you hear people say this isn’t a great draft [for quarterbacks]. I think it depends on the team, the player, the quarterback, how you’re going to acquire him, where you’re going to acquire him,” Schneider said, via the team website. “Bringing him through the building is really about, we need more time, we need more answers, and we need more time with this player based on the questions that we need answered in terms of the vision we see for this player and the fit.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n <\/template><\/p>\n Looking to predict NFL playoff Scenarios?

The Seahawks signed Sam Darnold in free agency to be their starter, so Seattle is set at quarterback for at least a couple of years. <\/p>\n But, the Seahawks still could draft a quarterback in the later rounds to develop and be Darnold’s backup.<\/p>\n The Seahawks opted to trade Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders and then signed Sam Darnold<\/a> in free agency.<\/p>\n Darnold signed a three-year, $100.5 million deal with the Seahawks. Seattle head coach Mike Macdonald is eager to work with Darnold and build the offense for him.<\/p>\n “I’m most excited about the person, the leader, the teammate, that guy that we get to work with every day. I think he’s in a great spot from our conversations. I think he’s energized, he’s driven and just like the rest of us in the building, so he’s going to fit right in,” Macdonald said on Sirius XM, via NFL.com.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Darnold helped lead the Minnesota Vikings to the playoffs last season and now has a chance to help the Seahawks get back into the playoffs.<\/p>\n Seattle will have the 18th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"march](\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/march-madness-logo.png\"){kind=logo}
