Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks’ second-year players still aren’t over the negative grades they received after the 2012 NFL draft.
A class that produced Wilson, linebacker Bruce Irvin and linebacker Bobby Wagner received an F grade from Bleacher Report the day after the 2012 draft. Wilson hasn’t forgotten.
The Seahawks quarterback tweeted a photo of himself and his 2012 classmates while taking a shot at Bleacher Report.

Included in the photo are No. 54 Wagner, No. 59 linebacker Korey Toomey, No. 13 wide receiver Phil Bates, No. 35 defensive back DeShawn Shead, No. 40 fullback Derrick Coleman, No. 22 running back Robert Turbin, No. 98 defensive end Greg Scruggs, No. 20 cornerback Jeremy Lane, No. 3 Wilson, No. 15 wide receiver Jermaine Kearse, cornerback Chandler Fenner (back), Irvin (back), tight end Cooper Helfet (back) and guard J.R. Sweezy (back).
The Seahawks will gladly take the F if it means a Super Bowl title in the next season. Imagine if they received an A.
