To put it another way, these are the 40 most important players on the team right now.

The Seattle Seahawks will begin their 2023 preseason tomorrow tonight, hosting the Minnesota Vikings at Lumen Field.

There are a couple dozen players who could go either way, but we are pretty sure that these 40 will make the cut.

Ranking the 25 most-important players on the Seahawks roster in 2023

The goal was to put together a ranking based on how long we expect them to be with the team.

The Seattle Seahawks held their final OTAs practice yesterday, which means the team is done until training camp begins in late July. That also means we have officially reached the peak of rankings season.

So far we have ranked all 32 teams around the league, the top 50 available free agents and Seattle’s position groups from strongest to weakest. Today we decided to do an internal power rankings. At first the plan was to rank all 90 players on the offseason roster but then we remembered it’s the middle of June. Instead, we went with a top 25 players list.

To get our list we took several factors into account, including the player’s age, skill level, contract situation, position and draft status. The goal was to put together a ranking based on how long we expect the player to be with the team.

The next phase of the Seattle Seahawks’ 2023 offseason program begins this week, as players report to mandatory minicamp June 6-8.

Then on Friday Seattle waived former Chargers nose tackle Forrest Merrill.
