​In the eyes of some, Seattle Seahawks left guard Greg Zabel is regarded highly ahead of the 2026 NFL season.Zabel was named as an honorable mention in ESPN’s rankings of the NFL’s top 10 interior offensive linemen for 2026, determined by voting from league executives, coaches and scouts.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisement”He played his ass off as a rookie. He’s going to be a Pro Bowler for [the Seahawks]. Excellent,” an NFC executive said.The 24-year-old Zabel allowed two sacks and 24 total pressures last season, and earned an overall player grade of 57.3 from Pro Football Focus for his work on the year.Zabel was not recognized in the top 10 among his peers in the interior based off of what he showed in his rookie year in 2025, but to be on the precipice of entering that air of players serves as a indicator of how much better he may be able to perform in 2026 with a year’s worth of experience going for him, which may see him enter that echelon next year if he plays up to that standard.This article originally appeared on Seahawks Wire: Where does Grey Zabel land in ESPN’s interior OL rankings?
