John Schneider, the Seattle Seahawks general manager, faces significant offseason decisions regarding key players such as Geno Smith, DK Metcalf, and Tyler Lockett, alongside enhancing the offensive line. Defensively, Schneider will need to manage cap savings while preserving the team's competitive edge.

A critical dilemma is the future of cornerback Riq Woolen. Despite being a fifth-round pick with potential All-Pro abilities, Woolen's inconsistency raises questions about his long-term fit within the team's plans. With one year remaining on his rookie deal, Seattle might consider trading him for a substantial return, especially given their needs at cornerback.
