The Seattle Seahawks' offensive line showcased terrific growth last season en route to helping the organization capture Super Bowl 60. Offensive line coach John Benton is back with the exact same projected five starters as last season. That bodes well for the offense in 2026 under first-year offensive coordinator Brian Fleury.
With that in mind, we've ranked the Seahawks' projected starting five offensive linemen from best to worst.
Charles Cross is the Seahawks' franchise left tackle. Starting quarterback Sam Darnold had his blindside well protected last season. Cross should enjoy another excellent campaign in 2026. The Seahawks are very fortunate to have his reliability at a premium position.
Grey Zabel was excellent as a rookie in 2025 after the Seahawks selected him at No. 18 overall. Everyone expects the former North Dakota State standout to showcase growth as a sophomore blocker. Zabel could already establish himself as one of the better guards in the NFL.
Abe Lucas got an extension from the Seahawks and put the injury prone concerns to bed by being reliable and available in 2025. Lucas overcame some difficulties to arguably enjoy the best season of his career. The Seahawks have their long-term solution at right tackle.
Jalen Sundell won a training camp battle at center, replacing Olu Oluwatimi in the lineup. The former undrafted free agent displayed a ton of personal growth while developing into an above-average NFL starter. If Sundell takes another step in 2026, the Seahawks' offensive line will be in really good shape.
Seahawks fans have always doubted right guard Anthony Bradford, but he managed to retain his starting job and played admirably in 2025. He's still the offensive line's biggest question mark. Bradford is also entering a contract year, and isn't expected to get an extension in Seattle.
