As the 2017 NFL Draft was winding down and David Moore had yet to hear his name called, the East Central University (Okla.) receiver started to turn his attention toward undrafted free agency, hoping to get a shot at an NFL roster after the selection process was over.

"There was nothing wrong with that," said Moore. "I was just trying to get to a camp, honestly."

But with the draft's No. 210 overall pick, the Seattle Seahawks came calling, and Moore referred to it as "like a dream come true."

"I talked to Seattle a lot," Moore said of what contact he had with the Seahawks prior to the draft. "They were one of the first teams to come and scout me, in my senior year. From the beginning, [Seahawks midlands area scout Aaron Hineline] told me, 'you're going to be a Seahawk.' At first I thought this sounds good, but he kept talking to me and ended up working out in Oklahoma City, and saw him quite a few times. He just kept telling me I was going to be a Seahawk."

The 6-foot, 219-pound Moore recorded 57 grabs for 878 yards and 10 touchdowns his senior season a year after setting a school record with 13 touchdowns and 1,079 yards receiving. He represents one of two wideouts Seattle took in this year's draft to go along with Michigan receiver Amara Darboh.   

"A hard working player, a player that loves to win, wants to win," Moore added when asked to describe himself as a player. "A real competitor. I love to compete."
