Overthecap hasn't been updated yet for the recent transactions, but things are looking very bleak in 2018 right now. Some major restructuring (kicking the can down the road ALA Saints) or some big name guys are getting cut soon.
https://overthecap.com/salary-cap/seattle-seahawks/
Seahawks currently sit with $19 million in cap space and only 37 total guys on the roster. Assuming 10 practice squad players make up to a total of ~$1 million dollars ($1.29 million is the minimum for a 10 man practice squad over 17 weeks), that leave about $17 million to sign 16 more guys, plus midseason signings to replace injured guys. Usually most teams keep $5-$10 million during the year for those injury signings... That puts the FO in a very, very tight situation.
Who stays, who goes?
