He re-signed this season for $2 million, but will be closer to $10 million on his next deal as other teams seek to crib from the NFL&#8217;s No. 1 scoring defense. Two Super Bowls in four seasons doesn&#8217;t hurt. Seattle has difficult decisions ahead in their secondary in free agency.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sign <a class=\"entity\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxsports.com\/nfl\/baltimore-ravens-team\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ravens<\/a> edge rusher Dre&#8217;Mont Jones\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" use-external-image=\"false\" data-v-d04fc069=\"\">(56th-best free agent, ninth-best free agent edge rusher)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" use-external-image=\"false\" data-v-d04fc069=\"\">Auman&#8217;s thoughts: &#8220;Jones, 29, split last season between the <a class=\"entity\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxsports.com\/nfl\/tennessee-titans-team\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Titans<\/a> and Ravens and reset his career high with seven sacks. He&#8217;s been a consistent rotational disruptor bouncing through four teams in seven years, averaging just over five sacks a season. With the coaching change, he could land with John Harbaugh and the <a class=\"entity\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxsports.com\/nfl\/new-york-giants-team\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Giants<\/a> or could go back to Seattle with Mike Macdonald, and should get a bump from the $8.5 million salary he earned in 2025.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" use-external-image=\"false\" data-v-d04fc069=\"\">(33rd-best free agent, third-best free agent cornerback)<\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" use-external-image=\"false\" data-v-d04fc069=\"\">Auman&#8217;s thoughts: &#8220;Woolen, 26, led the NFL with six interceptions as a rookie in 2022, making the Pro Bowl, and he&#8217;s totaled six over the last three seasons in helping the Seahawks to the Super Bowl. Seattle has plenty of cap space, but can&#8217;t keep them all. Woolen has 10-plus passes defended in each of his four NFL seasons. Projections for his next deal are all over the map. Spotrac has him at $8 million, Pro Football Focus has him at $15 million and others think he could draw more than that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Re-sign Rashid Shaheed<\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" use-external-image=\"false\" data-v-d04fc069=\"\">(16th-best free agent, fourth-best free agent wide receiver)<\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" use-external-image=\"false\" data-v-d04fc069=\"\">Auman&#8217;s thoughts: &#8220;Shaheed, 27, was electric after Seattle acquired him from the <a class=\"entity\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxsports.com\/nfl\/new-orleans-saints-team\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Saints<\/a> at the trade deadline \u2014 the only NFL player with a punt return and kickoff return for a touchdown, adding another kickoff touchdown in the playoffs. His receiving skills \u2014 59 catches for 687 yards and two touchdowns \u2014 are a nice bonus, and Seattle will have tough decisions on which impending free agents it can afford to keep. He&#8217;s likely to draw $15 million a year from a team that values a return threat and can use him creatively on offense as well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Re-sign RB Kenneth Walker III<\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" use-external-image=\"false\" data-v-d04fc069=\"\">(Sixth-best free agent, best free agent running back)<\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" use-external-image=\"false\" data-v-d04fc069=\"\">Auman&#8217;s thoughts: &#8220;Walker, 25, ramped it up in the playoffs with four touchdowns before running his way to Super Bowl MVP after rushing for 1,027 yards in the regular season. Seattle was a good bet to extend him already, but the injury to <a class=\"entity\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxsports.com\/nfl\/zach-charbonnet-player\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Zach Charbonnet<\/a> should make that more of a priority. Can he clear $10 million a year on a new contract? The Seahawks are a Super Bowl team still somehow ranked in the top five in available cap space for 2026, so it&#8217;s hard to imagine them not paying to bring him back as a central part of their offense moving forward.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Seattle Seahawks are Super Bowl champs, but there&#8217;s work to be done if they want to repeat.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":748130,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2052],"tags":[184,117,2282,10559,7,8488,9295,122,55,56,6,109,3698,169,3268,261,505,394,12062],"class_list":{"0":"post-748129","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-baltimore-ravens","8":"tag-baltimore","9":"tag-baltimore-ravens","10":"tag-baltimoreravens","11":"tag-dremont-jones","12":"tag-football","13":"tag-josh-jobe","14":"tag-kenneth-walker-iii","15":"tag-national-football-league","16":"tag-new-orleans-saints","17":"tag-new-york-giants","18":"tag-nfl","19":"tag-philadelphia-eagles","20":"tag-rashid-shaheed","21":"tag-ravens","22":"tag-riq-woolen","23":"tag-seattle-seahawks","24":"tag-super-bowl","25":"tag-tennessee-titans","26":"tag-zach-charbonnet"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116060695061446842","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/748129","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=748129"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/748129\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/748130"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=748129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=748129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=748129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
