The 2022 NFL season remains more than three months away, but with the Seattle Seahawks slated to have a pair of selections in each of the first two rounds of the 2023 NFL Draft thanks to the trade...
, fans are excited for the future. With that in mind, while there will certainly be tweaks to the roster, and therefore the cap situation, for 2022 in the coming weeks and months, things are clear enough for this season that it is possible to look forward into the cap picture for 2023.
The first item that will need to be addressed is to fill out the roster, as that $77M accounts for only 40 players. Now, because OTC has yet to include the four players the Seahawks drafted in the first three rounds of the 2022 draft and because the Seahawks currently hold a bevy of picks in the 2023 draft, these draft picks can be used to fill out the roster.
On the subject of RFAs, it’s an easy transition to any players from the 2019 draft class who have already or might yet qualify for the proven performance escalator. For the moment, Damien Lewis is the only member of the draft class to have already hit the snap count requirements for the PPE, and the escalator will bump his base salary by a little over $1.5M to just under $2.9M for the 2023 season. That doesn’t necessarily mean he would be the only one to see the PPE increase their 2023 salary.
