By most accounts, the Seattle Seahawks had a very successful 2022 NFL draft, addressing a number of positions of concern and adding some solid depth to the squad. But despite the work done over the weekend, this might just be the start of the Seahawks’ roster re-tooling efforts.
“We don’t feel like it ever stops,” general manager John Schneider said during his post-draft press conference Saturday night. “So this is just one avenue for us. So we’ll continue, around every corner we’re going to keep taking a peek and see what’s around the corner and see how we can improve this team.”
Following the draft, Seattle can still look to the veteran free-agent market and the number of young players who weren’t selected in the later rounds, inviting some to tryouts and to participate in the upcoming rookie camp.
Coach Pete Carroll echoed Schneider’s thoughts that the search is never over.
“Pretty well-balanced though in our choices, you know, that we got some spots that we had kind of agreed-upon it would be nice to get some help, and so the roster feels in pretty good shape right now,” Carroll added Saturday. “Is there big holes? I don’t feel like that at all, no.
“But, yeah, we’re just getting warmed up.”
