Seahawks cap space: How much salary cap space the Seattle Seahawks have, how they can add more

The Seahawks made one of the biggest moves of the offseason a year ago, trading franchise quarterback Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos for a whole lot of draft picks and some players. Expectations plummeted for Seattle with Drew Lock and Geno Smith competing for the starting QB job, but Smith had a comeback year for the ages and managed to get the Seahawks into the playoffs as an unexpected wild card.

They head into 2023 free agency with a solid amount of cap space and plenty of draft capital to do some damage. They'll look to upgrade a 21st-ranked defense after locking in Geno Smith to a three-year extension. Most eyes will be on the Seahawks come draft time when they get to use the Broncos' fifth overall pick, but they should be busy in free agency.

Ahead of free agency, the Seahawks are +550 to win the NFC West and +7000 to win the Super Bowl at DraftKings Sportsbook.
