Earlier this year, the Seahawks indicated they would draft a quarterback of the future come April so he could develop under the aging and oft-injured Matt Hasselbeck.
However, it's late in the draft and the Seahawks have neglected the position.

Several options remain in the draft, but all would be raw long-term projects.
However, it's not impossible to draft a future hall of fame QB in the late rounds, as evidenced by Tom Brady.
One quarterback heavily scouted by the Seahawks has been Central Washington's Mike Reilly.
Reilly was dominant playing for Central Washington, breaking all kinds of school records including Jon Kitna’s passing yards mark.Other QB's still available (updated 12:43 pm):
Tom Brandstater
Curtis Painter
Drew Willy
Graham Harrell
Hunter Cantwell
If the Seahawks choose to look past the position this year, they have a chance of drafting one next year with one of their two first round picks next year. The team acquired another first round pick from the Broncos in exchange for the Seahawks' 2009 second rounder.
