    With the 75th overall pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the Seahawks select Wisconsin QB Russell Wilson. Athletic passer who is best on the move or outside the pocket. Nifty, elusive and displays the ability to escape the rush and make the throw on the move. Displays a nice sense of knowing where receivers are on the field, keeps his eyes downfield and loses nothing throwing on the run. Sidesteps oncoming defenders to avoid the rush, picks up yardage with his feet and works hard to make positive plays. Goes through receiver progressions, looks away from the primary target and does not force the ball into covered receivers.
