Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall C
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureC
The Seahawks bled value on every deal, hence the C.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Seahawks took Roman Hemby a full 121 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. The final tally is a middling C.

They banked enough surplus on Banks to cover a lot of smaller sins. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

So much rides on Colton Hood that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Colton Hood
In the 32nd pick they get a ballhawk on the outside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick64 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Gennings Dunker at slot 64. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75 Rnd3 Caleb Banks
The board fumbled Caleb Banks all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick96 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
Steal is underselling it; Ja'Kobi Lane at Round 3, Pick 32 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jacob Rodriguez
Somehow Jacob Rodriguez was still sitting there in pick 119, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick156 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
A quiet steal in pick No. 156: Beau Stephens for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick192 Rnd6 Roman Hemby
They reached into another round for Roman Hemby, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick198 Rnd6 Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris in pick 198 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Thaddeus Dixon
Thaddeus Dixon at the Round 6 slot is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick227 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
They paid sticker price for Trey Zuhn III in Round 7, Pick 11, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
