Not rocket science......if you suck hard enough to get earlier draft picks often enough and don't choke on them (see Jesters), you will by default end up with some nice talent.
That and they play aggressive......must be nice.......kudos to them.
1. Drafted Earl Thomas in the first round. Awesome free safety.
2. Found Richard Sherman and Kam Chancellor in the fifth round. Sherman is one of the three best corners in football (not exaggerating) and Chancellor is a talented, hard hitter at safety.
3. Red Bryant turned into a superstar - a dominant defensive tackle who completely shuts down the run to his side of the field.
4. Turned the pick we traded them for Deion Branch into KJ Wright, again in the fifth round - Wright is a monster and making tackles all over the field.
5. Found Chris Clemons off the scrap heap - can't stop the run but he can sure rush the passer all day long.
They have maybe the best secondary in football and now with Irvin, Branch and Clemons can rush the passer too. Add to that a crazy home field atmosphere and there's a reason the Seahawks play well at home.
Earl Thomas is a stud. The AFC West is stacked with defense. It's interesting observing divisional arms races.That is a really nice young group in that secondary and it kind of annoys me. Look at the size of those guys heh.
I feel like that the seahawks D started rising ever since they drafted Earl Thomas.

We have McCourty and Arrignton.
With that being said, I'm not looking forward to going up to Seattle anymore with what I saw happen to Rodgers, the # 1 ranked QB!
So much for that "easy" Patriots schedule this season.

They have pressured Rodgers on every play.
Their record has been 7-9 ish so its not like they drafted in the top 5-7 every year. It appears they have drafted well.
Man; I am jealous.
