Analysis: Three Positions Seahawks Could Still Reinforce in Post-Draft Free Agency

Close to a month after he initially visited the Pacific Northwest, the Seattle Seahawks finally announced the official signing of veteran pass rusher Dante Fowler Jr. on Monday, addressing their last significant roster hole created via free agency this offseason.

But while the Fowler signing may wind up being the last noteworthy signing by general manager John Schneider before training camp starts in late July, nobody should be surprised if this latest move turns out not to be the cherry on top. In the past, the reigning Executive of the Year has kicked the tires on vets shortly before or even during the early stages of camp, and he’s always on the hunt for ways to improve his roster 365 days a year. If the right opportunity presents itself to spruce up depth at a position with proven commodity, he won’t think twice about taking advantage.

Looking at the players who have yet to sign with a new team as well as the depth chart for the Seahawks after the 2026 NFL Draft, which positions could still be worth consideration for further reinforcement? And which free agents may be the ideal match to fill those voids?
