Seahawks receive higher offseason grade than Rams from ESPN analyst
Summary

The Seattle Seahawks, reigning Super Bowl LX champions, have been graded higher than the Los Angeles Rams for their offseason activities. ESPN's Seth Walter awarded the Seahawks a B- grade, while the Rams received a C+. The Rams' lower grade is attributed to their controversial draft pick of backup quarterback Ty Simpson at No. 13 overall. Meanwhile, the Seahawks were praised for extending key homegrown players like Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Derick Hall, although the decision to let linebacker Boye Mafe walk has drawn some criticism.
