Seahawks Draft Thoughts A-Z: The Letter "C"

...It is widely known, and oftentimes widely criticized, that Pete Carroll and John Schneider do not follow convention. They do not follow the "collective draft-nik shared consciousness of player value" when selecting and grading players. This makes people, who don't follow the regime closely extremely uncomfortable.

In Win Forever, Chapter 19, Carroll quotes Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead. A reporter asked Jerry, "How do you feel about being possibly the greatest rock-and-roll band of all time?"

Sorry! anytime I can fit a quote containing valid NFL information and a statement from Jerry Garcia, I consider the day's efforts complete!
