2024 Seahawks 53 Man Roster Prediction and Breakdown
I’ve only attended 2 camp practices, 1 in pads, and broken down the all-22 of the Chargers and Titans a couple times each. Quite a reduction from my usual offseason routine, having 3 kids in 4 years will do that. In my offseason breakdown posted back in January I had Connor Williams, Jerome Baker, Tyrel Dodson, and George Fant as targets in free agency, so I still feel I have a pretty good grasp of what the team will look like come 4pm ET on August 27th. Of course, there are usually one or two surprise cuts, a trade, and a waiver claim, so the 53 players on the roster come opening day on September 8th will likely have a few names not mentioned here, probably at guard, tight end, &/or linebacker.
