On April 6th, the Seattle Seahawks are banking on their core, staying put this off-season, aiming to run it back with mostly the same squad next season. But their past rush is looking thin after losing back-up Boi Yimefe, and star-edge rusher DeMarcus Lawrence flirted with retirement before reportedly, deciding to return. Coach Mike McDonald confirmed, Lawrence is coming back for now, though he could still change his mind. The team rotated Russia's last year, so one less backup, shitting wreck things, but with Mafe gone, they're down two bodies if anything shifts. Fans and analysts see the risk here, especially at age 33 for Lawrence. The Seahawks won't chase free agents just to feel spots, sticking to their bargain-hunting style with only four draft picks to be super picky. Right now, Lawrence anchors the group alongside Drake Thomas, Ernest Jones the fourth, and Uchina Nuosu. But the depth guys like Jermarkis Weston, Jamie Sheriff, and Jalong Gaines don't inspire much confidence. Lawrence balled out last year, with Pro Bowl honors, 53 tackles, 11 for loss, 20 quarterback hits, 6 sacks, and a leak high too.

Fumble returns for touchdowns on just 59% of snaps, so if he stays locked in, this unit could still thrive heading into 20. 25.
