Mock draft after mock draft after mock draft after mock draft (ad nauseam), the Seattle Seahawks select a defensive player with the 5th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.

If the Arizona Cardinals are resetting expected to have a top 2024 NFL Draft pick...is anyone worth it?

2023 NFL Draft: Arizona Cardinals hold the most important pick in the 2023 NFL Draft
