Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueC NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Seahawks won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

The tape said wait; the Seahawks did not. Eric Gentry went at Round 6, Pick 32, a good 146 picks before the board was ready. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Getting Lane where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

The Christian Gonzalez pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick64 Rnd2 Jadarian Price
Jadarian Price at the 64th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick96 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Ja'Kobi Lane in No. 96, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jaishawn Barham
They let Jaishawn Barham come to them and pounced at slot 125. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick131 Rnd4 Keylan Rutledge
Value with a capital V on Keylan Rutledge in pick 131, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 VJ Payne
VJ Payne in Round 5, Pick 31 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick189 Rnd6 Eric O'Neill
Value said wait; Eric O'Neill in the Round 6 slot says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick211 Rnd6 Eric Gentry
A wild overpay on Eric Gentry in Round 6, Pick 32, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
