Give Pete Carroll, John Schneider credit for hard, but necessary, choices while remaking Seahawks’ core

For the Seahawks, this has been an offseason of amazing efficiency in the realm of roster construction.

They re-signed franchise quarterback Russell Wilson, earlier than expected and with a minimum of rancor. They worked out a deal to bring back linebacker K.J. Wright, when the consensus at the end of last season was that it would be difficult to do so.

Through a succession of trades, they raised their number of NFL draft picks from a paltry four to 11. They find themselves with a copious amount of salary-cap room – enough to still lock up a deal for linebacker Bobby Wagner and maybe even sign a few more free agents beyond Ziggy Ansah.
