Good afternoon, 12s.

Here's a look at what's "out there" for today - Tuesday, May 2 - about your Seattle Seahawks:

Day 2's Draft Winners; Day 3's Best Picks

The Seahawks' six-player haul on Day 2 of the NFL Draft, which included defensive tackle Malik McDowell (No. 35 overall), LSU offensive lineman Ethan Pocic (No. 58), Central Florida cornerback Shaquill Griffin (No. 90), Michigan safety Delano Hill (No. 95), North Carolina defensive tackle Nazair Jones (No. 102), and Michigan receiver Amara Darboh (No. 106), has Seattle listed as one of the selection processes second-day winners over at NFL.com, where *Around The NFL *editor Gregg Rosenthal gives praise to the club for improving its line play:

It wasn't a surprise that Seahawks GM John Schneider used the first two of his six (!) picks Friday to get bigger up front. Michigan State defensive tackle Malik McDowell has top-five talent, and Pete Carroll is just the coach to squeeze that talent out of him. Center Ethan Pocic from LSU fills a huge need and provides clarity to a jumbled Seahawks line. Seattle also added behemoth defensive tackle Nazair Jones to the mix late in the third round.

Turning the page to Day 3 of the draft, Colorado safety Tedric Thompson, who the Seahawks took with the No. 111 overall pick, is listed among the best picks that took place on the draft's final day. Here's what NFL Media analyst Elliot Harrison had to say about Thompson, who led the Pac-12 last year with seven interceptions and whose 25 passes defended led FBS:

Seattle added depth to a strength, but as players age, teams must have guys ready to step up. Not to mention, fourth-round picks like Thompson make their hay playing in packages and special teams. And then ... never underestimate gratitude.

Harrison's final comment there refers to the emotional reaction Thompson had when he received his draft-day phone call from Schneider and Carroll, which you can check out in the video below.
