James is the clear choice for the bottom the list. The sixth-round cornerback out of Auburn was the only draft pick who did not make 53-man roster and was released at the end of the preseason. He was signed to the New England Patriots’ practice squad Sept. 16 and did not appear in a game this season.

Smith is also past his physical prime, so it will be prudent to at least search for a potential replacement some day down the line.

The Seattle Seahawks pick 18th in the 2025 NFL Draft, meaning they are likely 15 to 16 spots away from getting one of the two first-round quarterbacks (Miami’s Cam Ward or Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders).

Of the notable former Los Angeles Chargers news making the rounds right now, the Seattle Seahawks might’ve made some of the most interesting buzz. There, the Seahawks signed safety JT Woods to a reserve/future contract.
