On trade front…Giants (No. 7) have received calls from teams about potentially trading into that spot, and Seahawks (No. 9) has some preliminary interest in that pick. But many teams largely expect movement to occur after the top 10. The 11-14 range could be sweet spot

The Seattle Seahawks currently have the No. 9 overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft but things could change quickly.
As to be expected, Seattle has gotten some calls from other teams expressing “preliminary interest” in the Seahawks’ selection, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.
Fowler was quick to follow up his initial tweet with an explanatory disclaimer.
“To be clear: Giants and Seahawks are getting calls on their respective picks,” Fowler explained. “This isn’t Seattle trying to move to 7 (as far as I know). Teams call each other to check parameters on any potential movement. Carry on.”
The Seahawks clearly aren’t going to tip off other teams with their intentions but it’s not out of the question that Seattle would move out from the No. 9 spot. It’s safe to assume more clubs could be calling with “preliminary interest” as we inch closer to the start of the draft.
