The Seahawks don’t have the same urgency that you do.
True to their pattern of the previous five years, Seattle general manager John Schneider and coach Pete Carroll traded down twice in Thursday’s first round of the 82nd NFL draft:
The first was five spots, from 26 to 31.
Then, the Seahawks traded down from 31 — completely out of round one.
Seattle’s first pick of this draft is now scheduled to be 34th overall on Friday, the second pick of round two, courtesy of San Francisco.
Seattle gained three picks in those two deals, with Atlanta and San Francisco, respectively.
