The Seattle Seahawks are coming off a Super Bowl ring and have to feel rather confident heading into next season. There were some players who left in free agency, including some impactful ones, mainly Kenneth Walker, but Seattle did a good job in the draft and the rest of free agency, putting them in a position to be one of the best teams in the NFL once again next season.
