Nobody had Wilson in the third really. He wasn't seen as an NFL QB. The fact that he has panned out thus far deserves praise for the Seahawks GM for spotting it, not the other 31 teams for missing it.
PS. With that being said, our GM liked him too. He probably would have been a Bill if he fell to us in the 4th. Oh well.
"I think you show great talent. And I pride myself on havin' an eye for that kind of talent."
The Manuel Era begins...
He was a first round talent and once again all these smart nfl people had him rated in 3rd or 4th because of height. Tj graham was a 6th round talent that we traded up to get. He can't catch a football and for all this speed supposedly,he can't get separation
Oh and Wisconsin's O-line was freaking giant as well.
He had no trouble seeing over those guys when they put up 81 points in that one game.
And yet scout.com had him as the 11th best QB in the draft. He obviously has panned out. I am just saying nobody thought his success in college would translate to the NFL.

When we traded up I got excited yelled to the wife "It's Wilson!!!" then when I saw the pick I went.. "TJ who?". I saw he had "it" why can't they?
..............
And I agree,he has all the tools.WHY HAVEN'T IN THE THREE YEARS OF THE INEPT ORGANIZATION HAVE WE NOTTTTTTTT DRAFTED A QUARTERBACK.. RG3 and cousins same draft... Seattle trades for Flynn and still drafts Wilson..San Fran had smith and still drafted kaepernick... And all those qbs see teams already had,they are a lot better then Fitzpatrick...nix is a messssss
Man, I'd rather have Andy Dalton and Gronk in Bills uniforms. That could've of happened just as well. Buddy has drafted okay in round one. We all could've made them picks though.

Chan Gailey 12/26/2010 - Pass rush would of helped a couple of those. That guy (Tom Brady) stood back there forever and someone finally come open.
OHH CANADA, EH?

Wilson ran a pro style offense in college and set the record for passing efficiency. He was definitely viewed as a pro QB. The only reason he wasn't in the conversation with Luck and RG3 was height and that's it. If you watched college football at all last year it was obvious that he was just as good as those two .
Gilmore,dareus and spiller were great picks. Spiller is a great player,but you DON'T DRAFT A RUNNING BACK IN THE FIRST ROUND,ESPECIALLY WHEN THE BILLS STILL PLAY A FREE AGENT RB MORE THEN HIM.I WOULD RATHER HAVE AJ Green OVER DAREUS. AND DON'T DRAFT A CORNERBACK THAT HIGH...AND WE DON'T DRAFT A QB IN ANY OF THOSE..
Ugh. Dude. There's reasons why this team hasn't been to the playoffs for 13 years now. It's misses like that. Anyone could've picked the picks Nix did in round one. Anyone. Take a look at them two players. They'd be good here. However, the coaching staff has sucked balls for several regimes. So, you got a point.
