On April 4, Seattle Seahawks lost some key free agents this off-season, including running back Kenneth Walker, the third to the Kansas City Chiefs on. A three-year deal, plus cornerback, Rick Woolen, linebacker Boyet Mayfay and safety co-brien. On the flip side, they locked in wide receiver Rashid Shaheed with a three-year extension. It's all part of the mix as teams gear up for the 2026-27 season. Earlier this week, NFL insider Daniel Jeremiah downplayed the impact, saying on a Seattle radio show that every player they lost is straight up, replaceable. He praised the front office for not overspending, pointing to their smart approach after a super bull run. Fans and analysts are split, but many see the Seahawks holding steady with one of the league's top defenses intact. The core stares outweigh the departures, and the hit might not show up big time yet. The team holds four draft picks, number 32, in the first round, 64 in the second, 96

in the third, and 188 in the third. Sixth, general manager John Schneider has a strong track record here, nailing recent gems like Byron Murphy and undrafted fines such as Tio Kata. With Schneider staring the ship, expect solid replacements, especially at running back where they're hurting most. The Seahawks could still dominate their division come next year.
