One reason for Pete Carroll’s optimism? Improved health of Jimmy Graham, Thomas Rawls

If Pete Carroll’s answers to questions about Richard Sherman and Marshawn Lynch drew most of the attention from his media session at the NFL league meetings earlier this week, the giddiness of his comments about two other players — Jimmy Graham and Thomas Rawls — was also hard to ignore.

As Carroll noted, this time a year ago, Graham and Rawls were each limited in their off-season work, resigned to rehabbing from significant injuries that had knocked them out the year before.

But this off-season, each is healthy and Carroll seemed like he could hardly contain his excitement at that thought.
