Seahawks' Quiet Free Agency: Building for Draft & Beyond

On March 11th, the Seattle Seahawks kicked off NFL free agency with a quiet approach, just as their general manager John Schneider planned.

They focused on resigning their own players, including Cornerback Josh Job, to a multi-year deal and wide receiver Rashid Shaheed, even though it cost a bit more than expected.

This strategy helps them build compensatory draft picks down the line.

With plenty of salary caps space still available, fans and analysts wonder if bigger moves are coming soon.

The Seahawks are one of only three teams that haven't signed any outside free agency yet.

Day 1 and 2 saw minimal action after a busy tampering period, but that fits their low-risk playbook.

Reactions from Seahawks insiders highlight how this keeps the team steady without overcommitting early.

Losing running back Kenneth Walker opened talks about draft targets like Washington's Jonah Coleman as a potential replacement.

Meanwhile, a possible trade for Raider's star Max Crosby fell through when the Ravens deal got nixed.

In NFC West News, the Cardinals added running back Tyler Algear, the 49ers bolstered their offensive line with Bret Toff on a one-year pact,

and the Rams are eyeing roster gaps despite their strong core.

The cornerback Rick Woolen landed a one-year deal worth up to $15 million with the Eagles.

As free agency rolls into the weekend, expect more buzz around Seattle's next steps and how these early choices shaped their roster for the draft and beyond.
