Wilson Praises Seahawks' Speed At Receiver 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Jun 4, 2014 1:28 am

Russell Wilson has been impressed by what he has seen from the Seattle Seahawks' wide receivers during OTAs.

"Our receivers right now are as fast as it gets," Wilson said. "You’ve got Percy (Harvin) and Doug Baldwin, and now can add Paul Richardson, who you saw [Monday] get that deep ball. So I think our receivers group is one of the faster ones in the league now, based of who we have."

Chris Matthews, the 2012 CFL rookie of the year, had a rough practice Monday, but Wilson likes what he sees in the 6-5, 220-pound receiver.

"Especially [last] Friday," Wilson said of Matthews. "He was turning it out, man, and making unbelievable catches going over guys. He’s a big target and that’s what we need."
