In this story:


While he may be the NFL's oldest coach, after leading the Seattle Seahawks to a stunning playoff berth in the first year without quarterback Russell Wilson, Pete Carroll has shown once again that he's one of the league's premier draws players want to play for.

Host Corbin Smith examines how Carroll's presence, personality, and infectious energy still resonates with players and helped lead to Bobby Wagner and Jarran Reed returning for a second stint as well as a pair of big ticket free agent signings in Dre'Mont Jones and Julian Love coming to Seattle this offseason.

Smith also takes a look at the Seahawks current offensive depth chart and lingering question marks and debates the merits of picking Jalen Carter, Will Anderson Jr., or Tyree Wilson with the fifth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.
