Biography:

2005: Spencer was drafted by the Seahawks in the first round of the 2005 draft (26th overall).

College Career: Spencer is an unheralded athlete with only one year of starting experience, but he so impressed the pro scouts during the 2004 campaign that he is now regarded as one of the elite blockers in college football. Surrounded by stellar offensive guards Marcus Johnson and Douglas Buckles, Spencer showed the ability to generate combo blocks along with his linemates, as the trio accounted for 18 touchdown-resulting blocks in 2004.

Spencer was considered one of the top offensive linemen in the nation and the top overall player from Mississippi as a senior at Madison Central High School. He earned Parade, SuperPrep, Prep Football Report, USA Today and Reebok's ESPN All-America first-team honors. SuperPrep rated Spencer the second-best offensive lineman in the nation. He added PrepStar Super 30 All-Southeast Region and Orlando Sentinel All-Southern first-team accolades. He was also selected Player of the Year in Mississippi by both Gatorade and Jeff Whitaker's Deep South Football publication.

Spencer was an outstanding run blocker, as he was powerful and dominating at offensive tackle. He helped lead Madison Central to the Class 5A state championship in 1999 as the Jaguars went a perfect 15-0. Spencer won the Class 5A Super Heavyweight power-lifting championship of Mississippi his junior and senior years, and holds all the prep lift records. During his senior season, he broke his own state record in the power-lifting competition, which is determined by combined weight lifted in three events (the squat, the bench press and the dead lift) when he totaled 1,675 pounds. That effort broke his own state record of 1,665 pounds set in South State competition earlier in the year.

Spencer played in every game behind Johnson at right offensive guard during the 2002 campaign. He started the first four games and the Mississippi State game at center in 2003, spending most of the year sharing playing time with Justin Sawyer. With Sawyer graduated, Spencer took over the starting chores at center full-time in 2004.
