Seahawks' Schneider: Low-Risk, High-Reward Free Agency

0:00On April 3rd, Seattle Seahawks GM John Schneider states super disciplined and free agency, grabbing mostly cheat deals instead of splashing cash. Out of a dozen signings, just two topped $5 million, and only three came from outside the team. It's all about smart, low-risk ads while holding onto cap space. Earlier this week, folks debated the best moves, and resigning corner Josh Job and tackle Josh Jones stand out. Job locks down the perimeter without a big hole, and Jones came back for $4 million as solid depth. Warning back Emanuel Wilson adds insurance behind Zach Scharbonnet, a tough runner from Green Bay at a steel. Fans and analysts see this as steady depth building, especially after losing four starters like Kenneth Walker and Boyet Mayfay to richer teams. Schneider's give bidding wars, which shows restraint, but at least questions at key spots like Rhyggard, the Big Miss? Getting on guard Wyatt Teller, who Houston snagged for $16 million over two years.
