2025 Fantasy Outlook
Visions of Jamal Adams are illustrated when Seattle's brass spoke about Emmanwori's role in the defense, as he can line up at safety, nickelback and in the box if needed. The 6-foot-3, 220-pound defensive back ran a 4.38 second 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, and the tape shows fluid hips and a keen eye for the ball. With extreme hype in tow, Emmanwori has plenty to prove, but he may not garner a full-time role in the defense immediately because safeties Coby Bryant and Julian Love remain in the fold.

Seattle adds athletic safety
The Seahawks selected Emmanwori in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 35th overall.
ANALYSIS
Emmanwori (6-foot-3, 220 pounds) proved himself one of the most athletic defenders in recent memory with a 4.38-second 40-yard dash, 43-inch vertical jump and 138-inch broad jump while otherwise standing out at safety for South Carolina. Emmanwori was a highly productive three-year starter and could be an impact defender in the NFL, though the Seahawks already have two competent safeties in Julian Love and Coby Bryant.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Jeremiah's top remaining player
Emmanwori, a talented safety from South Carolina, is deemed as the best remaining player on the board ahead of the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft by Daniel Jeremiah of NFL.com.
ANALYSIS
Jeremiah notes Emmanwori has "ideal instincts and ball skills" and assesses his ideal NFL fit could be as a strong safety, big nickel back or as a sub linebacker because of his ability to undercut routes and get his hands on the ball. Jeremiah adds Emmanwori isn't as suited for a role in the deep half of the field, but he sees the former South Carolina star as an impactful player if he's consistently played close to the line of scrimmage.
