Wait Until You Hear What Happened: Taylor Decker Wants Out of Detroit and Sam Darnold's Seahawks Just Got a Shopping List

Taylor Decker Wants Out of Detroit and Sam Darnold's Seahawks Just Got a Shopping List

Free agency officially opened back on March 11, and we're halfway through the 2026 offseason with some serious talent still unsigned. The Seahawks, with Sam Darnold under center, have plenty of holes to fill, and the open market is stacked. Here's who's actually available right now and worth paying attention to.

The Elite Tier Still Sitting Unsigned

Taylor Decker tops the list. The veteran left tackle asked for his release from Detroit after a decade with the Lions, and even though his 2025 pass block win rate sat at 89.3% (his second worst career mark), teams are still going to line up for premium offensive line help. That's just how this position works. Decker's bringing toughness and intangibles that win games in the trenches.

Right behind him is Stefon Diggs. The Patriots got one season out of the guy, and he caught 85 passes for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns. Sure, his play speed isn't what it used to be, but Diggs is still a savvy route runner who can line up inside or outside and create separation. He's got the grit to work the middle of the field on in-breaking routes.

The Pass Rush and Line Help Still Available

Joey Bosa ranks third. The Bills' edge rusher stayed healthy last year, playing in at least 14 games for the second straight season after getting banged up from 2022 to 2023. Running 36.3 snaps per game, Bosa racked up 5 sacks, 5 forced fumbles, and 42 pressures. He's your situational rusher who can still win with speed-to-power moves, and his effort late in plays keeps producing.

Joel Bitonio, the 12-year Cleveland Browns guard entering the 2026 season at 34 years old, rounds out the interior line depth available.

What It Means for Seattle

The Seahawks have some real shopping to do. Darnold needs weapons and protection, and this free agent class still has serious talent unsigned. Whether Seattle dips into this pool depends on what Brian Fleury and Mike Macdonald see as the biggest gaps right now.
