Rod Smith Reportedly Signs with the Seattle Seahawks

Some analysts say it's better to go undrafted than, say, get drafted in the late seventh round. Instead of being bound to one team, an undrafted free agent can shop his talents and find the best suitable situation.

There are worse situations to land in than the Seattle Seahawks, and Ohio State's former running back, Rod Smith, who was dismissed from the team in October, is headed to the land of lost and found gems. 

S/O to my blood brother Rod Smith....man just got picked up by Seattle! #opportunity
