Russell Wilson was selected with the 75th overall pick in the third round of the 2012 NFL Draft by the Seattle Seahawks. He was initially projected to serve as their backup quarterback, while possibly one day developing into a potential starting quarterback.

Wilson was so impressive during training camp and the preseason during his rookie year that he immediately won the starting job. Head coach Pete Carroll's decision turned out to be the right one as Wilson made an instant impact.
