New documents make things even worse for the Seahawks, Frank Clark

The Seahawks probably don’t have many warm, fuzzy feelings about the Patriots in the aftermath of Super Bowl XLIX, but the defending Super Bowl champions have definitely helped the two-time defending NFC champions in one respect recently. The Ted Wells report has drawn plenty of attention away from the controversy regarding Seattle’s decision to use a second-round pick on former Michigan defensive end Frank Clark.

To summarize, the Seahawks drafted him despite a domestic violence incident. They told him they couldn’t draft him with the charges still pending, so Clark got the charges resolved for roughly the price of a speeding ticket.
