The 2017 NFL Draft is complete and the Seattle Seahawks have already landed a few coveted undrafted free agents. NFL teams start trying to sign these UDFAs the second the draft ends, and sometimes even sooner, although all of the moves typically won't officially be announced for a few days.
While most UDFAs end up being little more than camp bodies, there are players that make the 53-man roster each season. The prospects all went undrafted for a reason, but they all have the potential to make it in the NFL in some role. And sometimes, teams strike gold with an Arian Foster or Tony Romo.
We have every player the Seahawks have signed below. We've also included a brief write-up about the more notable additions.

It's a small group for the Seahawks, although they might not be done yet.
Two notable players are on offense: Hayden Plinke and Darreus Rogers. Plinke has good size and might be able to carve out a role in the NFL as a No. 3 or No. 2 tight end who focuses on blocking. As for Rogers, he has the size teams want, but lacks the speed. He's an odd 'tweener between a deep threat and possession receiver and might end up as neither.
Tyrone Swoopes played QB at Texas, but he will play TE in the NFL. He's a project, but there's some potential. As for QB Skyler Howard, he's likely nothing more than a camp arm.
Given the lack of talent on the Seahawks' offensive line (which wasn't addressed enough in the Draft), the two linemen added could at least end up on the practice squad.
