D-Mo signs with Seahawks

Four Mountain West Conference running backs were selected in the NFL Draft on Sunday, but not Wyoming's Devin Moore.

The league's second-leading rusher this season failed to be picked in the seven rounds. Moore, however, will get a shot at playing in the NFL, as he signed a free agent contract with the Seattle Seahawks Sunday night.

Seattle, which was 4-12 last season, didn't draft a running back. The Seahawks, however, did sign North Dakota State running back Tyler Roehl as a free agent. If you remember, Roehl was injured and had just three carries against the Cowboys.

There was no word by Sunday night on any other possible Wyoming free agent signings.

In case you are wondering, the MWC running backs picked in the draft include Gartrell Johnson of CSU (Chargers), Frank Summers of UNLV (Steelers), Fui Vakapuna of BYU (Bengals) and Aaron Brown of TCU (Lions).
