John Schneider probably never expected the backlash to be so bad, but there he was, fielding tough questions about his latest draft pick. When the Seattle Seahawks selected Michigan defensive end Frank Clark in the second round last April, it brought a feces-storm of second-guessing and ridicule. How could the great Seahawks organization, led by poster boy Russell Wilson, spend such a high draft pick on a woman beater? (Quick recap, Clark allegedly had a physical altercation with his then girlfriend, but was never charged with a crime.) It was obvious Schneider was uncomfortable, and uncharacteristically caught off guard by the response.
Will Seahawks shy away from troubled pasts in this year’s draft?
