Decisions, decisions for the Seahawks in just a few days.
Free agency officially begins next Wednesday, but teams can talk to the agents for players on other teams starting Monday, March 13. Between now and then, teams can re-sign their own pending free agents.These players can only negotiate with the Seahawks which means that all of them are likely to return on 1-year deals that will pay them the league minimum .- he provided a spark to the return team late in the season; bringing him back is an absolute must.
The Seahawks have the option to tender an offer to each of these players at a predetermined amount. If they do, the amount of the tender will apply to the 2023 salary cap immediately. If they don’t, the player will be anThe benefit of applying a tender is that it gives them the opportunity to match any offer the player receives and, if they pass on that opportunity, the player’s new team will owe the Seahawks a pick in next year’s draft.
Seattle’s restricted free agents are: RB Tony Jones, WR Penny Hart, ILB Tanner Muse, and SS Ryan Neal.is an obvious keeper; there is no way the Seahawks will let him leave . . . unless another team gives him a ridiculous offer. Because Neal was originally an Undrafted Free Agent, my understanding is that the most we can get if he leaves is a 2nd-round pick.
might also be a keeper - not because he’s a great player, but because Seattle is in desperate need of linebackers.If the season started today, Seattle’s starting linebackers would probably be Nick Bellore and Josh Onujiogu .Hart has appeared in 39 games over the last 3 years and has lined up for 638 snaps so he clearly has value to the team. Yet his career stat line is 11 receptions for 82 yards with 0 touchdowns.would guarantee him a salary of $2,627,000 this season and that is way too high.
won’t get tendered, but don’t be surprised if he ends up re-signing with us at some point this summer.
