On April 4th, free agency kicked off almost a month ago, and while most big names have signed, some solid veterans are still out there. For the Seahawks, top targets include Ed Rushers, Von Miller, Cameron Jordan, and Jadeviang Clowney, plus Cornerback, Lazarus Sneed, and Running Back. Raheem Monster, the team is holding off until after the draft to avoid messing up their compensatory pick-math. They're playing a smart game for extra selections in the 2027 draft by letting good players walk and grabbing cheap ones now. Signings after the draft won't touch those compics, so expect heavy moves once they're clear. With a few weeks to go, these guys could vanish quick. Fans and analysts see the appeal. Miller, at 37, played all 17 games last year with nine sacks for a week commander squad. Sneed brings Chiefs level corner play, if he stays healthy, and Jordan notched double-digit sacks on a bad Saints team after a slow stretch. Monster adds the speed backfield boost they need. Clowney fits perfect too.

Hwarching, he thrived under new coach Mike McDonald in Baltimore, and signed late last year with Dallas still producing. Rookies won't fix the Edge Rush overnight, so vets like these bridge the gap and give flexibility with young corners. Once the draft us settles, wash Seattle pounce. These additions could juice the defense and run game, setting up a real contender push.
