Seahawks' Free Agency Moves Graded: Can They Keep Up?

0:00On March 18th, the Seattle Seahawks fresh off their Super Bowl win with one of the youngest rosters in the league, just got graded on there. First week free agency moves by Profa Ball Focus. General manager John Schneider earned a solid mark among all 32 teams, but his rivals in Los Angeles and San Francisco came out even stronger. Those NFC West foes were neck and neck with Seattle last season, delivering tight games and proving they were among the NFL's elite when healthy. Now, the Rams and 49ers are pushing hard with aggressive signings, putting extra heat on the champs to keep up. Fans and analysts see Schneider playing smart defense, knowing he lose talent to poaching teams. He focused on key spots like offense and cornerback, picking one star from each group to retain amid tough choices. Details show he resigned cornerback Josh Job, though PFF called it below average, based on last year's play. Meanwhile, Rick Willen headed to Philadelphia on a one-year deal rated above average and similar trade-offs hit playmakers like Kenneth Walker, the third and Rashid Shaheed.
