The Seattle Seahawks have taken a cautious approach in free agency, focusing on smart decisions rather than big splashes, particularly on the offensive line. General manager John Schneider emphasized the importance of patience over panic, especially after missing out on top targets. So far, the team has only signed Josh Jones as a backup, while also pursuing free-agent guard Teven Jenkins. Discussions were held with Will Fries, who ultimately signed with the Minnesota Vikings without undergoing a medical evaluation due to a prior serious injury.

Head coach Mike Macdonald is tasked with developing young talents like Abe Lucas and Christian Haynes, hoping they can solidify the offensive line ahead of the NFL Draft in April. With limited movement during free agency, questions loom about the line's effectiveness as the season approaches. Schneider's commitment to a deliberate strategy indicates a belief that long-term benefits outweigh the temptation for immediate fixes.
