Seahawks' Draft Strategy: Avoiding Late-Round RBs, Re-Signing Key Players, and Trading Up for QB and DT.

The data shows that the team's later-round picks have been mostly meh, and the slim-pickings left on the free agent market mean that the team needs to look to the draft for a quality running back.
