Over the course of 48 seasons, the Seattle Seahawks have boasted plenty of star power on offense, defense, and special teams. But which players stand out as the best of the best closing in on half a century as an NFL franchise?

To take part in the festivities, each member of the All Seahawks writing staff assembled their own individual rankings for the top 100 players in Seahawks history.

After compiling averages from all four lists, who made the final cut? To open our countdown with a special teams emphasis, here’s players No. 100 through 91 with highest ranking, lowest ranking, and analysis courtesy of our writing staff.

100. Ray Roberts, OT

Seahawks tenure: 1992–95

Highest ranking: 95

Lowest ranking: Unranked

Writer’s take: One of Seattle’s 18 top-10 picks in franchise history, Roberts was selected 10th overall in the 1992 NFL Draft and anchored the left side of the offensive line for three seasons. Roberts started 46 games at left tackle during that span for sub-par teams (Seattle finished 2-14 his rookie season) before playing in 11 games, and starting none, in 1995 — his final season with the Seahawks. After four years in Seattle, Roberts played five seasons with Detroit to conclude his career. Now an analyst for the team, the Seahawks’ history of decorated offensive tackles pushes Roberts far down the list, but he squeezes in at No. 100. -
