When discussing the free-agent acquisition of safety Bradley McDougald, the two names that Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider brought up were Michael Bennett and Cliff Avril.
"Just a player we had rated very highly as an unrestricted guy," Schneider said. "We loved what he did last year with 90-some tackles and we just felt like, the guy was still out there. It was one of those deals where we have a good relationship with his agent, they reached out to us, and his market didn’t necessarily go where he wanted.
