Welcome to NFL News Today, two minutes of updates that matter to NFL fans. The Seattle Seahawks are working hard to keep most of their Super Bowl winning roster from last year together. They have about $40 million in salary cap space left, but just four draft picks to work with this offseason. General Manager John Schneider is focused on filling a few key gaps after letting some high-priced players walk. Earlier this week, experts noted that the team played the long game by not overpaying to retain everyone. Now, with free agency winding down, attention turns to locking up their own young stars before bigger contracts hit. Fans and analysts are buzzing about the Seahawks strategy of prioritizing homegrown talent. It keeps the core intact and builds excitement for another run at the top of the league. Key extensions loom for Wider Seever Jackson Smith and Jigba and Cornerback Devon Witherspoon. Both were first round picks in the 2023 draft and have shown brightly in their early careers.

If Schneider nails these deals, the Seahawks could stay in championship contention for years. They're set up well to smash the offseason and keep that contender window wide open.
