The Seattle Seahawks scored high marks for their draft haul this offseason.

And it’s already paying dividends.

First-round pick Grey Zabel blocked well in his first NFL action, while second-rounders Nick Emmanwori and Elijah Arroyo flashed their potential at defensive back and tight end, respectively.

In the early portions of camp, former Colorado State wide receiver and fifth-round pick Tory Horton has also generated plenty of buzz.

In his first NFL action Thursday, Horton continued to back up the hype that has been growing early in camp, hauling in a second quarter 10-yard touchdown reception:

Viewed as a potential Day 2 selection, the 6-foot-2, 196-pound pass-catcher slid to Day 3 and was highlighted as a possible steal.

So far, Horton is firmly in the mix for the WR3 spot behind established starters Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp, who was a free agent signing this offseason.

Thursday’s touchdown grab is only going to continue to build hype for the emerging rookie.
