With the first overall pick in the first ever Seahawks All-Time Fantasy Draft, (19)76er GM jaeger selects...

Matt Hasselbeck, Boston College

Solid quarterback play is necessary for success in the NFL. Great quarterback play can win games for otherwise deficient teams. The Seahawks have not had an abundance of talent at that position over the years (see, e.g. Stan Gelbaugh). The (19)76ers will build their team around the shiny head of The Objectivist.

How does this work?

I don’t quite understand. Are we counting these guys Seahawks years only? Obviously Jerry Rice and Warren Moon belong in the top 5 (even perhaps 1-2)...

Are you drafting out of college or just drafting them from the year they became hawks until they stopped being hawks?

Is there a guideline or just pointing our subjective faves based on subjective criteria?

Clearly

they’re being drafted based on their Seahawk careers only. Beyond that, I think everyone gets to pick their own criteria.

Only counting their Seahawks career.

The college thing is just for fun.

I was so glad I got to see Rice as a Seahawk.

He was my hero.

I was going to post something up when I found out...

but that day sort of went in the crapper for me, and I missed him too.

On the flip side, it was one of those days that goes so bad that you sort of reevaluate some things and make decisions that are long overdue. Yay, life-lesson. Boo, missing the greatest receiver of all time.
