With Geno Smith gone and no clear successor in place, Seahawks fans are left debating whether this was a necessary step forward or an avoidable mistake. The front office now holds the keys to a franchise-defining offseason, with a mountain of cap space and draft picks but no proven quarterback.

Seahawks No-Table discuss the Seahawks trading Geno Smith to the Raiders and DK Metcalf to the Steelers, securing extra cap space and draft capital but creating major questions at quarterback and wide receiver. While John Schneider insists this is about building for the future, the weak free-agent market and uncertain rookie class make the path forward murky.

Ray Roberts chats about a seismic Seahawks roster overhaul sparking heated debate about the team’s direction. While salary cap savings and a potential rebuild make sense on paper, the uncertainty at quarterback—now with Sam Darnold in the mix—raises more questions than answers. With the offensive line still a glaring issue the next few months will determine whether this is a quick reset or a long, painful rebuild.

Mariners No-Table talk Justin Turner’s blunt comments about the Mariners’ lack of spending echo long-standing fan frustrations, while Jerry DePoto’s latest remarks do little to win back goodwill.

As the team navigates lineup questions and bullpen optimism, all eyes are on whether they can defy expectations—or confirm them.
