Warrick, 28, signed with the Seahawks last summer, after the Cincinnati Bengals released him, but he played sparingly for the NFC champions, catching just 11 passes for 180 yards and seeing some duty as a punt returner.
Although the Seattle wide receiver depth chart remains crowded, the departure of veteran Joe Jurevicius to Cleveland in free agency has thinned the ranks a bit, and Warrick is confident that he can contribute more in his second season with the club, and with a better comfort zone in the offense.
Unrestricted free agent tailback Travis Minor has re-signed with the Miami Dolphins, netting a one-year contract, the financial details of which were not immediately available.

 Seahawks Huddle - Home of the 12th Man :: Home
The Seahawks considered Miami's Jennings, who should end up starting on the left side, the most consistent cornerback in the draft.
Last year, the Seahawks signed a squatty defensive tackle (Chuck Darby) and an undersized defensive end (Bryce Fisher) in free agency and then drafted a too-small, too-slow middle linebacker (Lofa Tatupu) and a compact-sized outside linebacker (Leroy Hill) in the second and third rounds.
The Seahawks would have considered either Penn State's Tamba Hali or North Carolina State's Manny Lawson with the 31st pick to satisfy their need for a pass rusher, but they went to the Kansas City Chiefs (at No. 20) and San Francisco 49ers (No. 22).
