[QUOTE="jaybadger82, post: 459375, member: 6211"] I don't think this describes Wilson at all and it reflects a remarkable lack of perspective. I recommend you review Wilson's [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell_Wilson']background[/URL]. You'll find that he's performed well on the big stage since his high school state championship and overcome adversity with his father's early death. College football isn't the NFL but it is the NFL's minor league; Wilson's success, especially in passer efficiency and accuracy, suggests he will be a good pro. He's been successful at every level and at every stop in his career (except baseball, of course). Terrell Owens: 6'3" Sidney Rice: 6'4" Ben Obamanu: 6'1" Braylon Edwards: 6'3" Zach Miller: 6'5" Kellen Winslow: 6'4" (source: [URL='http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/depth/_/name/sea/seattle-seahawks']ESPN.com[/URL]) Wilson would be stupid not to put some air under the ball and let his man go up and get it much of the time. This doesn't really have to do with defenses scheming for Seattle: corners tend to be short. I suppose the criticism about Wilson's height will be parroted until he wins a super bowl or something. At Wisconsin Wilson set the FBS single season record for passing efficiency playing behind a line that averaged 6'5" in height and included three current NFL linemen. Peter King reported that he had just four batted passes at the LOS all season long. Compare to 6'4" Ryan Tannehill who had 17. We're not seeing problems with batted balls in Wilson's three preseason games with Seattle. We'll see what happens when the games count but one wonders how long the concerns about Wilson's height will dog him. P.S., Wilson has exceptionally long arms for his height, which elevates the release point on his throws. [/QUOTE]
