JS just cannot stop drafting, signing and trading for injury prone players.
While I won't deny that JS has acquired many players who became injury prone, I'm struggling to recall many instances where injury history was a big concern before they became Seahawks. Even CJ Prosise played 24 games over his final two seasons at Notre Dame. Coming into the NFL, durability was actually considered a STRENGTH for Rashaad Penny, who played at least 13 games all four seasons he was at SDSU. In his four seasons with the Chargers, Nwosu did not miss a game in three of them, and played 13 of 16 in the other. These things happen.

I'd suggest Schneider might just be unlucky, but I don't know enough about the records of other GMs to say that definitively. It wouldn't surprise me if this is normal for a sport featuring jacked-up 300lb men with elite speed repeatedly slamming into each other. It makes it even more critical to employ a competent scouting department that can help to keep a team replete with quality depth.
