Seahawks All-Time Fantasy Draft (46)

With the 46th overall pick in the first ever Seahawks All-Time Fantasy Draft, the Springfield Mudbones select...

Warren Moon, Washington

In an earlier post, Warren Moon was described as "decrepit" during his time in Seattle. Even if you give zero weight to the rest of Moon's Hall-of-Fame career, his performance in 1997 makes him by far the best QB left on the board. In '97 Warren Moon had the best season for a "not-Hass-or-Krieg" QB in Seahawks history, racking up 25 TDs and over 3600 yards. He is also the only Seattle QB besides Beck and DK to ever be named to a Pro Bowl.

I have no doubt that Largent, Engram and JLW can get open, and 41-year-old Warren Moon can deliver the ball right between the numbers.

Moon was also pretty immobile

So he’s a pretty big injury risk behind the current offensive line.

Still, he was pretty much who we were targeting, so nice pick.

You're going to pose as me and draft Mirer as the Sliders RB?

That would be fiendish.

Oh, you won't be that lucky

Let’s just say the words “John Friesz” should strike fear into your very soul.

I joke about Moon, but when he was on he was fun to watch.

You just couldn’t believe his age. In retrospect, Moon probably benefited from rookie Walter Jones. Who knew in 1997 that Moon was only the second greatest player on that offense.

My major concern with Moon is you get most of one season, and then after he craters the next season, you’re back to drafting another quarterback.
