12th Man Rising

● By Lee Vowell
The Seattle Seahawks have rebuilt their roster over the last two years, going from one of the oldest teams in the NFL to one of the youngest rosters in the league. But Seattle hasn't just gotten younger, of course, they have more overall talent than they did three years ago. Much of this talent still lies with a rookie class that should be even better in 2024. With the 2022 draft class entering year three and the 2023 version going into year two, 2024 could be a special season for the Seahawks. But holes still exist on the team that need to be addressed through next offseason's free agency or through the 2024 NFL draft. Hitting a proverbial home run in three straight draft classes? Seattle might make it happen. Seattle is probably also unlikely to make as much of a splash in free agency as they did this past offseason. General manager John Schneider isn't usually so aggressive. Though Seattle signed defensive tackle Dre'Mont Jones to the biggest contract Schneider had ever signed another team's free agent to, he probably isn't going to do that same thing in 2024.
