That's... a lot of significant players.

What? No it isn't. Graham, Paul Richardson, Shead, and Maxwell are the only good starters. Sheldon Richardson is obviously great but we always knew he was going to be a 1-year deal. Garvin, McDougald, and Smith are decent role players and Willson is a meh TE2.

Joeckel sucks and costs 8 mil AAV.
Lacy sucks and costs 4.25 mil AAV.
Luke Willson is bad and costs 1.25 mil AAV.

If you cut all of them you can easily re-sign Paul Richardson + Shead, and likely sneak in another short term deal for Maxwell.

Graham is weird because he's probably worth less than the $10 mil AAV that he currently makes, but a random team might pay him more.

I'm more in this line of reasoning. If those are the FAs from a roster of 54 then we're doing pretty well. I see a lot of money that can easily be let go.

stanton, gabbert - bye probably

tramon williams - way better than i expected. keep him unless he wants a lot of money
john brown - needs to figure out if he's going to be healthy, maybe a bridge deal or lots of incentives
jaron brown - love him for what he is, more power to him if he gets a giant deal like andre roberts/steve breaston
troy niklas - bust that can still block. i dunno
frostee rucker - incredibly cool fat man
brittan golden - reminds me of cortland finnegan but not in the way that makes you hate his guts. bring him back cheap unless some other team wants to pay him actual wr money
josh bynes - filled in great when uhh whoever got hurt. keep him
ifeanyi momah - lack of production but still shows flashes. keep him for cheap i think

He's amazing when he takes over a series, but honestly Brieda has done better this year, by the numbers. Hyde'll make some team very happy, and hopefully get the 49ers a nice compensatory pick next year.

I'm sentimental about Hyde because he's been the only bright spot on the offense for a couple of years. Brieda is the way forward though, kid can catch, run, and block.

Cody Davis is a decent backup, shame he was out for most of the year. Easley could still come back, but he's torn his ACLs 4 times now though? I thought Wade Phillips could make him a pretty good 3-4.

I still thought Andrew Donnal and Cody Wichmann were on the roster for reserve offensive linemen.

Based on Pete's press conference people are deducing:

Bennett gone.

Kam done.

Earl Thomas gonna get dealt.

Malik McDowell will never be a Seahawk.

To be fair the last is "Pete isn't factoring Malik into his plans next year because of uncertainty due to injury." And yeah, concussions have no time tables can take a long time etc, but still.

What happens this upcoming year is pivotal. If the Seahawks draft well and rebuild they can end up coming out of this pretty good. If they double down on the 'Russell Wilson doesn't need protection and we pretend that we still have the #1 defense' they will be terrible and then I will join the calls of burning everything down.

I understand most of the other discussed moves but this one I do not understand. Earl is one of the best safeties in the league. He has been the "qb" of one of the best defenses. Sure he may want more money but pay him! He is a player that cannot be let go even for a top 5 pick. This goes along the soap opera lines of Sherman last year where I think this is mostly media driven and not reality for the team. We had Brian Russell at FS before Earl who was terrible - one of the worst starting seahawks players ever. He's #25 in the gif below.

A couple of bad and/or mediocre QBs will try to throw against him and get picked or simply shut down. Everyone will say he's back. The good ole Sherm. Then offenses will be cautious and keep throwing towards the other side of the field. People will assume he's still good, but we'll never really know.
