The Senior Bowl is today, and while I have a whole lot of ignorance about college football compared to obsessively following it as a child, I do know that if history is a guide we will have a few players from the game drafted by the Seattle Seahawks.
This has been somewhat of a running joke but one founded in reality... Seattle loves them some seniors. They’re not unique in this regard — the 49ers took Senior Bowl participants Deebo Samuel and Fred Warner and the Rams’ notable picks who played in the Senior Bowl include Aaron Donald, Cooper Kupp, Joe Noteboom, and Greg Gaines — but a significant part of their draft strategy in recent years has been to look for players who’ve used up all of their collegiate eligibility.
