Michael Sinclair had a plodding start in the National Football League, as the sixth rounder from Eastern New Mexico did not see any action as a rookie in 1991.   From 1992 to 1994, he would play on pass-rush situations, but by 1995, he was playing in all defensive situations.

An All-Rookie after being taken in the Second Round in 1988, Brian Blades would play his entire career with the Seattle Seahawks.

Mack Strong played 201 Games (his entire NFL career) with the Seattle Seahawks, which was an impressive feat for anyone, especially a player who was an Undrafted Free Agent.

From New Mexico State, Fredd Young came to the Seattle Seahawks as a Third Round Linebacker, though that is not what he would do much of as a rookie.
