After bouncing around with four different teams over the past three seasons, the Seahawks could be reuniting with a former fan favorite to help bolster the competition in their secondary.

With another offseason under way and free agency officially opening on March 12, reporter Corbin Smith dishes out instant reactions and grades for each of the Seahawks free agent signings.

Unlike the offensive side of the ball, the Seahawks have worked diligently to keep their defense intact this offseason after a strong finish to the 2024 season. Where do things stand at each position group heading into the 2025 NFL Draft?

When it comes to competing for an NFC West title and a return to the postseason, all eyes will be on Sam Darnold and Cooper Kupp as newcomers filling big shoes. But the Seahawks will only go as far as their most maligned unit, which looks largely unchanged, performs under a new coaching staff.

Looking to improve upon a generally poor performing kick and punt return unit last season, the Seahawks brought in one of Klint Kubiak’s first pupils as a coach.

Despite numerous free agent visits, the Seahawks have failed to upgrade their offensive line at all in free agency. But one potential move still remains that could achieve those means before the upcoming NFL Draft.

Looking for additional depth at a key position in Klint Kubiak’s scheme, the Seahawks brought in a former rival to join their tight end group for the 2025 season.

Shuffling the deck on the depth chart in the secondary, the Seahawks hope to have found a quality replacement for Rayshawn Jenkins and K’Von Wallace in the third safety role as well as a key linchpin on special teams.

Much to the dismay of a large segment of the team’s fan base, the Seahawks have remained quiet signing veteran offensive linemen despite nearly half a dozen visits this week. What’s behind the lack of activity? And is a signing still a possibility?

After missing 22 regular season games over the past two seasons, Uchenna Nwosu agreed to a revised contract to give the Seahawks a bit more financial flexibility in the present.

After enduring a difficult split from the Rams that he never thought would happen, Cooper Kupp has bought what the Seahawks are selling for the next chapter of his career, eager to finally sport the colors that he grew up cheering for in nearby Yakima.

Now in bargain shopping mode, the Seahawks have been busy investigating several potential options to reinforce the interior of their offensive line. But do any of the three reported guards who have visited the VMAC represent an upgrade?

As a six-year starter in the NFL, Garrett Bradbury possesses experience and athletic traits that the Seahawks would love to have at the center position in Klint Kubiak’s offense. But would it be worth it to take a flier on him following his release from the Vikings?

After landing a replacement for Geno Smith and supplementing both their receiving corps and edge rush units, the Seahawks still have plenty of areas left to shore up as free agency slows to a crawl and the NFL draft rapidly approaches.

Following the departure of Tre Brown, the Seahawks have replaced the former fourth-round pick on the depth chart with another ex-day three pick in Shemar Jean-Charles.

Plugging several holes in the first week of free agency, the Seahawks still have one glaring need heading towards a critical 2025 NFL Draft, but that issue could be remedied as early as Monday.

Injuries have slowed down Cooper Kupp in recent seasons, but his remaining strengths should allow him to mesh well in Klint Kubiak’s scheme alongside Jaxon Smith-Njigba as part of a rebuilt Seahawks receiving corps.

Choosing to return to his home state after being courted by multiple teams, the Seahawks needed Cooper Kupp as much as the receiver needed them, making a three-year pact perfect for all parties.

Unlike a year ago, the Seahawks have prioritized signing players with previous links to their coaching staff this offseason, a trend that likely will continue as free agency progresses into the second and third phase.

Continuing to stockpile talent along the defensive line, the Seahawks made a bold move to bring Demarcus Lawrence on board with hopes he can bounce back from a significant injury and boost both the pass rush and run defense off the edge.
