Pete Carroll says it was time for a change for cornerback Tre Flowers

The budget has gotten tight for GM John Schneider and the Seattle Seahawks. With less than $2 million in available salary cap space this year, and not much more than that looking ahead to 2025 either, some major decisions will need to be made in the coming days and months. In fact, they'll need to adjust some contracts or jettison a few players just to sign any players taken in this weekend's NFL draft! Should fans be concerned? Who better to break it all down than Curtis Allen, who does such a fantastic job analyzing this (among other things) for Rob Staton's Seahawks Draft Blog. Curtis will update us on the Seahawks payroll situation, and provide some answers as to just how they can manage it all this year and next.

Former Field Gulls contributor Patton Richard has been putting together Seahawks draft boards for years. The self-proclaimed "draft nerd" has finalized this year's board, and the result is a tiered list of potential Seahawk targets broken out by position and levels. It's a great way to see just where the different pockets of value to try and understand why Seattle may be focusing on certain position groups at specific spots in the draft. I'll take you through his board, ask about his process, and get some of his specific takes on why a few players at each position just scream "Seahawk!"

Seahawks beat reporter Corbin Smith, host of Locked on Seahawks and lead writer for All Seahawks, impressed me so much with his latest mock draft that I just had to have him on the show to break it all down. As many mocks as I do, I don't think I've been able to nail one in quite this manner, and what intrigued me the most was when he went in a direction with Seattle's first pick that I NEVER take. He'll explain his thought process, and how this 9 player class would fit in Mike Macdonald's first year as Seahawks head coach.
