Seahawks QB Sam Darnold is "middle of the road" according to Bleacher Report
Seahawks star Sam Darnold was appraised by Bleacher Report as being a high-quality starter at the quarterback position this summer.
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold is positioned as an average starter in the NFL according to Bleacher Report's evaluation for the 2026 season. The report places Darnold at No. 15 overall in their assessment of the top quarterbacks, categorizing him as a "high-quality starter." Ahead of him in the same category are Trevor Lawrence of the Jacksonville Jaguars, Caleb Williams of the Chicago Bears, and Jalen Hurts of the Philadelphia Eagles.
Last season, Trevor Lawrence was named an AP MVP finalist, while Caleb Williams was a standout new talent, and Jalen Hurts led the Eagles to an NFC East title win. Despite facing competition from these top-tier quarterbacks, Darnold secured a Super Bowl victory last season and threw for over 4,000 yards for the second consecutive year.
As Darnold prepares for another season with the Seahawks, he has the opportunity to continue his strong performance in passing yards and potentially improve his ranking among the best quarterbacks in the league.
