say TeamA is seeded below you and would like to select TeamB, would they (TeamA, TeamB or both) approach you and ask you not to select TeamB?

That's too general a question for me to have a pat answer, so let's talk specifics:
Say the planets aligned on Curie in such a weird way that 2612, 469, and 1114 seeded 1st, 2nd, and
9th. We share two sponsors with 469 and one with 1114. We share parts with and cut parts for 469. We spend hours talking FiM/FIRST with them. We want them to win; we want to win; we want Curie to win; we want MI & GM & TARDEC teams to win.
In that specific case, with all those relationships, and since it ain't gona happen anyway. I think we'd hire Big Mike from MoTown to come down and make the rest of the captains an "offer they couldn't refuse" to leave 1114 for our second pick.

Or would that only present yet another moral dilemma?
EDIT: Changed 1114 from 3rd to 9th seed to make the scenario possible.
