On March 11th, the Seattle Seahawks celebrated their second Super Bowl title after a stellar 14-3 regular season and a dominant playoff. Run where they outscored opponents, 101-46, Kenneth Walker III earned MVP honors with 135 rushing yards on 27 carries. But in a quick offseason twist, the star running back left for the Kansas City Chiefs. Walker, coming off with 1027 rushing yards and five touchdowns plus 31 catches for 282 yards, hit free. Agency as one of the top names available. He agreed to a three-year deal worth $43.05 million that could reach $45 million once the legal tampering window. Open Monday. Seahawks fans feel the sting of losing a key playmaker from their explosive offense, leaving a big hole in the backfield. The team now eyes free agency and the upcoming draft to rebuild, especially with only four picks to work with.

Analysts like Austin's Wyam predicts the Adel Grapp's Pinstate running by K-Tron Allen at pick number 96. Over four seasons, Allen racked up 4,180 rushing yards and 39 touchdowns, including a banner 2025. With 1,303 yards and 15 scores. This move could pair Allen's steady early-down style with Zach Scharbene on passing downs, helping the champs adapt without their former star while chasing another title run.
