On long-term talent our Rating reads 69. At 23 Seelt is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 83.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Seelt missed 18 games through injury (knee, illness) out of roughly 38 this season. The 2 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

3.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 2 appearances.

Strengths

  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 96.8/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 7.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 69.3 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
