We’re just four days away from the legal tampering portion of the NFL offseason, followed by the official start of free agency on March 11. The Seattle Seahawks are known for letting the market play itself out before making decisions on key free agents, and nothing this year indicates a change from John Schneider’s longstanding practice.
While there’s been plenty of debate over the Seahawks likely losing all of Kenneth Walker III, Riq Woolen, and Rashid Shaheed as free agents, there hasn’t been as much
discussion about who they could bring in. Last year’s free agency was busier than expected with the likes of Sam Darnold, DeMarcus Lawrence, and Cooper Kupp all helping Seattle to the Lombardi Trophy, but what does the landscape look like in 2026? How many non-Seahawks from this top 150 free agents list even fit the plan? Do they look to free agency, a trade, or the draft for more pass rushing help? What is the goal in terms of replacing Walker if he leaves? What about wide receiver? So many questions, so many answers we won’t know for a bit.
The Seahawks Syndicate podcast is back at 5:30 pm PT to talk about free agency, which positions the Seahawks should address, NFL Combine standouts and how last week affected Seattle’s draft board, and what the strategy should be for the reigning Super Bowl champions heading into the 2026 league year. Tonight’s show is hosted by Field Gulls’ Bryce Coutts this evening, joined by myself, Dan Viens, and Brandon Cain. Hey, we formed this collaboration right before last season started, so we should get some credit for this Super Bowl run!
