The Seattle Seahawks have drafted WR Golden Tate with the 60th overall pick (2nd round) of the NFL Draft.  Tate was projected by many of the experts to be a first round pick so look for him to be motivated to try to show a lot of teams that they made a big mistake.  Tate is 5’10″, 195 pounds but he is a tough guy who has little issue with going over the middle to make a catch.  He played in a pro-style offense at Notre Dame so look for him to adjust really quickly to the NFL.  Tate played in 12 games (all starts) at Notre Dame last season and he caught 93 passes for 1,496 yards (16.1 avg) with 15 TD grabs.  He played in 37 games (22 starts) in his three years at Notre Dame and he caught 157 passes for 2,707 yards (17.2 avg) with 26 TD grabs.  Tate has a good upside and the Seahawks got outstanding value getting him in the second round of the NFL Draft.
