Poona Ford went undrafted out of the University of Texas. NFL teams saw him as too small to play defensive line. The Seahawks may have viewed Ford this way too because they signed him to an undrafted free agent deal instead of picking him in the draft. Seattle, though, has had a lot of success from players who didn’t get taken and Ford may be the latest guy who will turn out to be great.
Ford played limited reps in his rookie year of 2018 but he was very good in the little time he played.
