Asked in June to evaluate how tight end Jimmy Graham has fit in with the Seahawks during his first two seasons, head coach Pete Carroll delivered a response that surely raised a few eyebrows.

“Gosh, I think it’s been awesome,’’ Carroll said.

Carroll, of course, tends to see the bright side of things (it’s possible he even liked the Ed Sheeran appearance in Game of Thrones).

But Carroll then went on at length (218 words worth, to be exact) about how he thinks Graham has not only been a good fit so far, despite a lot of Hot Takes protesting otherwise, but will be an even better one in 2017.
