Seahawks add 24 players in one day

Busy day for the Seahawks front office. Let's see if I can do this without missing one.

LenDale White, RB (6'1", 235 lbs) - acquired in trade with Tennessee Titans
Comments: 25 year old power back, played for Pete Carroll at USC. He's struggled with his weight.

Kevin Vickerson, DT (6' 5", 305 lbs) - acquired in trade with Tennessee Titans

Leon Washington, RB (5'8", 195 lbs) - acquired on trade with NY Jets
Comments: 27 year old tiny speedster. Recovering from a broken leg suffered in week 7 of last season.

Walter Thurmond, CB, Oregon (5'11", 189 lbs) - Round 4, pick 13 (111)
Comments: Recovering from a knee injury, very fast, returns kicks.

E.J. Wilson, DE, North Carolina (6'4" 286 lbs) - Round 4, pick 29 (127)

Kam Chancelor, FS, Virginia Tech (6'3" 231 lbs) - Round 5, pick 2 (133)
Comments: Carroll loves him some big safeties, it went against his grain to have picked Earl Thomas in the firs round.

Anthony McCoy, TE, USC (6'4" 259 lbs) - Round 6, pick 16 (185)
Comments: Matt Taibbi's rule #1 for the NFL Draft is, "Dope smokers are a bargain." We can thank The Chronic for delivering a 3rd round talent to the Seahawks in the 6th round.

Dexter Davis, DE, Arizona State (6'1" 244 lbs) - Round 7, pick 29 (236)
Comments: Kind of like Nick Reed, but better. (Sorry, Nick.)

Jameson Konz, WR, Kent State (6'3" 227) - Round 7, pick 38 (245)
Comment: A great athlete, but not yet a great football player.

Rob Rose, DT, Ohio State

I suddenly had a vision - of Matt Hasselbeck, surrounded by the thunderous sound of 56 bongs.

Thomas on Okung: "I tried to blitz and he caught me up under my shoulder pads and we talked and I told him to please not throw me on the ground," Thomas said. "He didn't ... and that's how we first met. I'm glad he's on my team now."

These guys are perfect for Seattle.
