Seahawks are quietly winning big on the trade everyone mocked

The week before free agency has been overly exciting for Seattle Seahawks fans in the last two years. Nothing quite matches 2025, though. General manager John Schneider changed his offense in a matter of about three days.

One move sent wide receiver DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers. People were concerned about the team's lack of explosiveness if Metcalf left, but as a wideout, Metcalf can only control so much.

It was the trade that sent quarterback Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders that potentially had the biggest impact. In return for Smith, Seattle only received a single third-round draft pick.
