Production and contributions from undrafted free agents have been a staple of the John Schneider-Pete Carroll regime. The Seattle Seahawks have approached rookie free agency as aggressively as other franchises approach unrestricted free agency, with Carroll tapping into his past as a recruiter at USC. The attention given to the post-draft frenzy every year has paid off, as the Seahawks have acquired impact players at a massive bargain rate, such as Doug Baldwin, Jermaine Kearse and DeShawn Shead.
Last season was no different in Seattle, with 17 undrafted players on the active roster by the end of the season.
