Seahawks: Avoid Free Agency Pitfalls, Seek Smarter Replacements

0:00It's March 8th. Here's your NFL news in two minutes, subscribe to stay locked in all season. The Seattle Seahawks are heading into free agency on a high note after their Super Bowl victory, but they'll lose some key players and need smart. Replacements. Veterans might take pay cuts for a title shot, yet experts warn against rushing into deals with certain names on the market. Take Leonard Floyd from the Falcons, for example. The 34-year-old edd rusher had a rough year with just 19 tackles in 3.5 sacks, his worst in a decade. His time in the NFC West didn't pan out lately, so Seattle might find better options to fill gaps like boy a mafe spot. Meanwhile, wide receiver Darnell Mooney, also from Atlanta, looks risky. He managed only 32 catches for 443 yards and won touchdown, a big drop from his prior seasons. As a potential Rashid Shaheed replacement, his decline raises red flags. In the secondary, cornerback Martian Latimore from the commanders isn't the answer either.

1:01Fresh off a torn ACL and a lackluster trade stint, he got cut this off season. Depth may be later, but not a spring signing with Rick Willen, Josh Job, and Kobe Bryant leaving. Finally, Hollywood Brown from the Chiefs doesn't fit the offense. As a slot guy, he overlapped with Kubrickub, and Seattle needs bigger targets to pair outside Jackson Smith and Jigbaugh instead. Better to shop wisely for that repeat run. This episode is brought to you in partnership with our sponsor.
