Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said new quarterback Drew Lock would have been the first QB selected in the 2022 NFL draft.
"I think he'd have been the first guy picked, of quarterbacks anyway. He'd have been the first guy in this draft. I don't have any hesitation saying that," Carroll said Thursday on Sports Radio KJR (via Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk).
The Seahawks acquired Lock from the Denver Broncos as part of the blockbuster deal that ended Russell Wilson's 10-year tenure in Seattle.
Lock, a 2019 second-round pick, failed to impress across three years in Denver.
