The Seahawks may not be getting any respect from the national media, but at least the competition recognizes that this team has a lot of talent. This week NFL Network began revealing their annual top 100 players in the league list, as voted on by the players themselves. So far three Seattle players have made the cut in the first 20.
Here's who they are and where they rank:

Other Seahawks players who have a case to make the top 100 include quarterback Geno Smith, defensive lineman Leonard Williams and cornerback Devon Witherspoon.
None of them have a slam-dunk case, though. Smith has been consistently underrated since he became Seattle's starter in 2022, Williams missed last year's list after making it the previous two seasons and even standout rookies like Witherspoon tend to get overlooked on this list until they prove their early success wasn't a fluke the following year.
