That figure can grow if the team is willing to make some difficult decisions. When it comes to the 2022 NFL offseason, there are several ways the Seahawks can go, as they currently boast a hefty amount of cap space. If Wilson does return, the Seahawks will undoubtedly have to make some moves in order to better position themselves in the crowded NFC West. Quarterback Russell Wilson could return to Seattle, or he could seek to play out the rest of his career in an offensive environment where he'll be allowed to prove he's capable of doing the things that other elite signal-callers are capable of. If only the CBs were as good.The Seattle Seahawks have an interesting offseason ahead of them. Safeties – Jamal Adams, Quandre Diggs, Marquise Blair, Ugo Amadi and Ryan Neal Are any of these guys really good enough to stop opposing offenses from eating the clock and scoring long touchdown drives? Time will tell. This is the defensive group that will make or break the Seattle season. Reed and Tre Brown (Sidney Jones once the trade processes)

Cornerback – Ahkello Witherspoon, Tre Flowers, D.J. Still, the three listed as LBs on the roster are really good. To be fair, Taylor and Robinson will play more linebacker, especially on passing downs, that defensive line, so this group of three is really five. Linebackers – Bobby Wagner, Jordyn Brooks and Cody Barton DT could be a question mark as there isn’t a ton of run-stopping depth should someone get hurt. Overall at edge rusher, especially if young guys Robinson and Taylor produce, this is a potentially very good group. Collier and Rasheem Greenĭefensive tackles – Poona Ford, Al Woods and Bryan Mone Defensive lineĭefensive ends – Carlos Dunlap II, Darrell Taylor, Benson Mayowa, Alton Robinson If the starters, Brown, Shell, Lewis, Jackson and Fuller (?) stay healthy, then Seattle is in good shape. Tackles – Duane Brown, Brandon Shell, Jake Curhan, Stone ForsytheĪnywhere guys – Cedric Ogbuechi, Jamarco Jones, Phil Haynes If this group remains healthy, especially Parkinson who seems to get injured easily, then this is a very strong group that should produce good numbers in Shane Waldron’s system. Tight ends – Will Dissly, Gerald Everett and Colby Parkinson But depth will be needed during the regular season at some point. The top four, especially the top three, seem solid.

D’Wayne Eskridge and Freddie SwainĪmong the cuts was Penny Hart. The question is who is his real backup? Collins or Penny? And will Dallas be the main kick returner? Receivers – D.K. Running backs – Chris Carson, Rashaad Penny, Alex Collins, DeeJay Dallas, Travis Homer and BelloreĬarson is the true starter here. Wilson is clearly the starter and Smith clearly the backup. Maybe they kept him on with the thought of releasing him once a bigger – non-quarterback – move is made. Mannion seemed likely for the practice squad so that he stayed on the active roster is one of the Seahawks oddest moves.

Seahawks initial 53-man roster announced for 2021 season Quarterback – Russell Wilson, Geno Smith, Sean Mannion Not that the four didn’t seem good but just there is a lack of real depth and maybe that means Seattle will be looking to sign or trade for a veteran receiver. The Seahawks also only kept four receivers even though five seemed like a given.

Maybe Seattle did Bellore a favor when it comes to Pro Bowl contention because he has a better chance at fullback than linebacker. Bellore is listed at his normal fullback spot though he rarely gets reps there in the regular season. Seattle didn’t list Nick Bellore among the linebackers even though he seemed like a natural fit there this preseason. Wright, Seattle listed only three linebackers. First of all, for the first time since 2013, Seattle kept three quarterbacks on the team. The Seattle Seahawks finalized their initial 53-man roster for the 2021 season on Tuesday.
