Anthony Gordon, Quarterback, Washington State

The Seahawks prefer having veteran quarterbacks backup Russell Wilson – especially in recent years. That included cutting their most recent late round quarterback selection, Alex McGough, in favor of Brett Hundley two years ago.

That doesn’t necessarily point to them investing a draft pick in Washington State’ dynamic quarterback, Anthony Gordon, although with the high number of picks Seattle currently has it wouldn’t be shocking to see them use a pick to bring a young quarterback into camp.

Gordon has one of the best arms in all of college football, with absolutely staggering production this season – even for air raid standards.

Gordon’s footwork is suspect and Mike Leach’s offense does tend to inflate quarterback production, but the recent run of success by Gordon’s predecessor, Gardner Minshew, could give Pete Carroll and company some interest.

If Gordon’s value jumps into the middle rounds, expect Seattle to be out. However, if he falls similarly to where Minshew went last year, they could take a shot at him.
