Now that the majority of the free agent period is overwith, we have a much clearer picture of what the Seahawks will look like this year. General manager John Schneider went in with a plan to reshape the roster in a dramatic way, accelerating the rebuilding process that began with the Russell Wilson trade two years ago.First, Schneider cut any contract that might have been deemed even remotely burdensome, cutting Quandre Diggs, Jamal Adams and Will Dissly, to name a few. Then he moved to retain the team’s two premiere free agents, one on each side of the ball in Leonard Williams and Noah Fant.
