Should D.K. Metcalf, a superb wide receiver, be traded by the Seattle Seahawks? Would it assist the team in filling voids left by free agency? Although there are still unanswered questions, the Seahawks should sign these two cunning free agents. The Seahawks, who finished 10-7 and missed the playoffs, appear to have a respectable roster going into 2025. The trenches on both sides of the football field are the issue for the team trying to win.
Mike Macdonald expressed his belief that the Seahawks may achieve significant progress throughout the offseason, as reported by seahawks.com.
This is an opportunity to become the team we want to be.”
But at over $11.3 million over the cap, the Seahawks need to be creative.
Forget adding offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley. Too expensive. The same applies to defensive tackles Milton Williams and Osa Odighizuwa.
But the Seahawks might be able to finagle a way to get Robinson. He’s ranked at No. 17 for Pro Football Focus. He won’t be cheap, but he could be a great addition.
“Robinson was part of a Jaguars team that had a dismal start to 2024,” PFF wrote. “But individually, he was a reliable option at left tackle before being acquired by the Vikings at the trade deadline. His 95.1 pass-blocking efficiency rating this regular season was the worst mark of his career. But if anything, that’s a testament to his play over the past four years.”
Robinson would fit nicely in offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak’s plan to build a strong infrastructure around quarterback Geno Smith, according to seahawks.com.
“Excited for (Kubiak) to work with our players,” Macdonald said. “As a coach, just the scheme expertise, this guy has been around the game for a long time. And well-documented with his family and have so much respect for his brothers and for his father, Gary (Kubiak). I worked with him in 2014.
“But the passion for the game, the scheme expertise, the track record with the quarterback. Guys have played at a really high level every stop that he’s been. The evolution of the scheme, too. And being able to fit it to your personnel, Klint has a really great vision for where he wants our offense to go. It was very clear with that with the personnel we have on our roster. We’ll talk about it as we go here, but I definitely believe that aligns with how we want to rock.”
Kubiak said he brings a multiple approach to the line of scrimmage, a scheme suited well for a player like Robinson.
“I think the number one thing is that you better have more than one way to win,” Kubiak said. “We’re going to have an identity. We want to be smart, we want to be tough, we want be physical. Those are three critical attributes. But it’s important that we can run the football, that we’re a successful throwing team.
“We’ve got to have all of our guys contribute on special teams. And we have to communicate that to the offense how important it is to win as a team. There’s not one way to do it. So, here going from April to June, we better get rocking on the fundamentals so that we can win multiple ways come the fall.”
