The Seahawks just made a major statement by locking up Charles Cross — and that deal may only be the beginning. With several foundational players nearing free agency, Seattle faces critical decisions about who to extend next, who to prioritize early, and how to stay ahead of a rapidly rising market. In this episode, we break down three Seahawks who are next in line for big money, why each one matters to the team’s future, and what comparable contracts across the league suggest their next deals could look like. Seattle has shown a clear pattern: identify core talent early, strike before the market explodes, and keep championship windows open. The question now isn’t if more deals are coming — it’s who’s next.
