"With two picks in the top half of the first round, should the Seahawks try to move up to the first overall pick or stay put?"
• ANTICHARISMA

Position:	Quarterback
College:	Virginia Tech
Birth Date:	6/26/80
Height:	6'1"
Weight:	217
40 Speed:	4.32

Strengths: Michael Vick has a strong arm with good touch on the deep ball. He also has a good feel for the pass rush to go along with his tremendous scrambling ability. He throws well on the run, and is an elusive runner in the open field. In fact, he is a better runner than many of the running backs in the NFL.

Weaknesses: He is a little shorter than the prototypical NFL quarterback, although at 6'1", he should have little trouble adjusting to the bigger lineman. He also has just two years of college experience and may not be ready to start for a couple years.

Summary: Vick is definitely the best athlete, and by far the best quarterback in the draft, and will probably be the first pick.
