The Seattle Seahawks may not have a first-round pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, but they do have a league-leading 11 selections. That gives general manager John Schneider and head coach Pete Carroll a full 11 chances, barring any trades, to show off their storied drafting prowess Thursday through Saturday.
This year’s draft is the sixth for the Schneider-Carroll regime in Seattle. And its shaping up to be a potentially fruitful one, as Schneider has become known for finding top talent in the draft’s later rounds. Russell Wilson (third round), Kam Chancellor (fifth) and Richard Sherman (fifth) are just a few examples.
