Post-Snap Reads 4/29: Seahawks pick pair of intriguing players on Day 2 of NFL Draft

Good morning/afternoon, Seattle Seahawks faithful! Are you not entertained? So far, our ‘Hawks have certainly tantalized. Day 2 brought a few more contentious picks, plus another trade with the Denver Broncos. As it goes, you’d hope that Rounds 4-7 find our Seahawks drafting with a bit more focus on the interior of the OL and DL. Personally, I’m quite happy with the players we have selected thus far. How are we feeling? If you are frustrated with the first 3 rounds of selections, what would make you happy going forward? Are you upset about the Charbonnet pick or do you understand that amongst other position groups we def needed an RB2? Leave a comment below. Thanks for being here!
