Rival scout: Russell Wilson is not an elite quarterback

Every weekday morning, we'll round up local and national Seattle Seahawks-related links.

A rival scout identified Russell Wilson as the Seahawks' most overrated player, via SI.com:

Russell Wilson is not an elite quarterback. Pete Carroll has created an environment where he encourages individuals to be themselves and also demands his men to be their best and pay attention to details. It’s that setting, as well as a great defense, that has everything to do with the success the Seahawks have had over these last few years. Don’t get me wrong, Wilson has had a hand in this too, but he moves the offense because of the scheme and because they win the field position battle week in and week out.
