Part of John Schneider's job as general manager of the Seattle Seahawks this offseason is to identify underrated talent in the 2025 NFL draft. The Seahawks are especially turning over every leaf in search of help on the offensive line. Finding a diamond in the rough would help improve the overall outlook.
That's why it's particularly notable that the Seahawks are hosting Kansas offensive lineman Bryce Cabeldue on a pre-draft visit, according to a report from ESPN's Brady Henderson.
Cabeldue primarily played right tackle for the Jayhawks, but NFL scouts project him to play guard at the next level. NFL.Com's Lance Zierlein assigned him a grade of 5.98/10, which equates to an average backup or special teams player. "Cabeldue has good pop on contact and can maul his way to wins," Zierlein writes. "He’s more athletic than expected inside the box, but his range as a blocker will trail off."
Cabeldue earned an invite to this year's East-West Shrine Bowl, where he primarily played guard. The Seahawks possess multiple holes at guard, particularly on the left side following Laken Tomlinson's departure in free agency. Perhaps Cabeldue will be a target in the latter rounds, or via undrafted free agency.

The Seahawks are hosting Kansas' Bryce Cabeldue on a 30 visit this week, a source tells me. Cabeldue (6-4 ¾, 306) played both tackle spots in college, making 47 starts over five seasons, but he may project as a guard or center in the NFL; he worked at guard at the Shrine Bowl.
