The Seattle Seahawks entered free agency last month with six key players who were set to hit the open market as unrestricted free agents.<\/p>\n

Why Macdonald envisions Shaheed as bigger WR threat in \u201926<\/a><\/p>\n

The Seahawks brought back two of those players, re-signing speedy wide receiver\/return specialist Rashid Shaheed and cornerback Josh Jobe. But the other four \u2013 running back Kenneth Walker III, edge rusher Boye Mafe, safety Coby Bryant and cornerback Riq Woolen \u2013 each signed elsewhere.<\/p>\n

Of those four free agent departures, should any of them be concerning to the Seahawks?<\/p>\n

NFL Network\u2019s Daniel Jeremiah<\/a>, who was posed that question Thursday on Seattle Sports\u2019 Brock and Salk, doesn\u2019t think so.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot to be callous, but I think they all are replaceable,\u201d Jeremiah said. \u201cI think there\u2019s good players, obviously, in that group of guys. But for the roles that they were playing and where they were \u2013 a lot of times you think about, man, you lose a left tackle or you lose your starting premier edge rusher or a defensive tackle. Like, those are going to require high picks or high dollars in free agency to replace.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the guys that they lost, they can replace in second, third, fourth, fifth-round picks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jeremiah praised the Seahawks for their disciplined approach in not overpaying during free agency.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have conviction and belief in their process, and there\u2019s proof in the pudding coming off of a Super Bowl,\u201d Jeremiah said. \u201cThey didn\u2019t overpay. They got the deals done that they felt were proper deals and fair deals and didn\u2019t stretch it. And now they\u2019ll rely on their talent acquisition as we go into the draft, which John\u2019s been exceptional at.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s easier to be confident when you\u2019ve got the trophy, and it\u2019s a pretty good indication your process works.\u201d<\/p>\n
