Seahawks Urged to Trade 4-Year Player to Ravens Ahead of 2026 Season

The Seattle Seahawks had a fantastic 2025 season, because they obviously won the Super Bowl. It doesn’t get any better than that in the NFL. But, now they’re looking to do it again, and it’s not going to be as easily this time around.

Ahead of the 2026 season, the Seahawks are being urged to make a blockbuster trade with the Ravens with a play who’s heading into his fourth season with the team.

Moe Moton of Bleacher Report has released a feature where he names one blockbuster trade each franchise should make before the 2026 season starts. “We could get more transactional fireworks this summer, or at least see moves that we expected teams to make, like the Brown deal, before final roster cuts on August 30,” he states.

For the Seahawks, Moton wants them to trade center Olu Oluwatimi. He notes that in 2024, Oluwatimi started at center in eight out 12 games, but he’s not below Jalen Sundell on the depth chart.

“As a backup for most of the 2025 campaign, Oluwatimi only made four starts while Sundell was on injured reserve, he adds. “If Sundell retains the starting spot at the pivot, the Seahawks may get trade inquiries for Oluwatimi, who’s only 26 with 13 career starts in three seasons.”

Moton likes the idea of Oluwatimi going to the Ravens, and it’s a move that makes sense. Baltimore lost center Tyler Linderbaum to the Las Vegas Raiders in free agency, and since Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald came from Baltimore, he might be in a better spot to make a trade happen.
