Trade 1 of 2
Seattle Seahawks and Baltimore Ravens
Seattle sent pick No. 56 to Baltimore and received Nos. 62, 165 and 199. The Seahawks selected Christine Michael at No. 62, then used the two later selections in a separate trade with Detroit. Baltimore chose linebacker Arthur Brown at No. 56. Brown never developed into the defender Baltimore expected, while Seattle retained three distinct assets and found some value from Michael and the later trade package, giving the Seahawks the edge.

Seattle Seahawks and Detroit Lions
Seattle sent picks No. 165 and No. 199 to Detroit for No. 137. The Seahawks selected defensive tackle Jesse Williams, while Detroit used the acquired selections on punter Sam Martin and running back Theo Riddick. Williams' career was derailed before he could become a regular contributor. Martin became a quality long-term punter and Riddick a productive receiving back, giving Detroit two useful players and a decisive hindsight advantage.

- Pick 2013 5th round pick (137th overall, Jesse Williams)
Detroit Lions
- Pick 2013 5th round pick (165th overall, Sam Martin)
