The Seattle Seahawks added a few new faces to the roster during the first week of free agency, including former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker, Devin Bush.
The move made NFL.com analyst Buck Brooks’ top-10 free agent signings so far that are not to be overlooked.
“Pete Carroll loves a reclamation project, as evidenced by his work with Geno Smith, among many others, during his tenure with the Seahawks,” Brooks writes. ‘Bush is next on the list as a former top-10 pick who struggled with injuries and inconsistency in Pittsburgh. Despite failing to live up to expectations as a Steeler, the ultra-competitive defender still has the dog in him that made the Michigan product a ballyhooed prospect in the Class of 2019.”

“If Carroll can crack the code and unlock the feisty defender who delivered a number of splash plays as a rookie, the Seahawks’ defense could rejoin the ranks of the elite with Bush and a group of junkyard dogs leading the way.”
The Eagles’ signing of former Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny also made Brooks’ list.
