Every year Pete Carroll loves to taunt Seattle Seahawks fans with “draft clues.” He uses music, movies, and this year he is using .GIFs to hint at which players or positions the team is leaning towards. To my knowledge, he has never explained them afterwards and since they obviously don’t get all of their targets, the clues probably are about players they don’t actually get.
Here are a few recaps from 2017, 2016 and 2014
In every case we are left searching for answers, only to be teased into insanity. No one has ever won this game, but we still play it.
