Grand theft in Round 2, Pick 27: the Seahawks steal Emmanwori and grade out a B-. The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Seahawks watched Nick Emmanwori slide 39 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.
The cost of the Williams reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Jalon Walker
In slot 30 they get the heartbeat of the defense at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50
Rnd2
Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins in Round 2, Pick 18 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick55
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
They liked Tate Ratledge enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 55. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick59
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Steal is underselling it; Nick Emmanwori at the 59th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick62
Rnd2
Jalen Royals
A straight-up fair deal on Jalen Royals at the 62nd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick82
Rnd3
Elijah Arroyo
A slide stopped in No. 82, with Elijah Arroyo worth more than the price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick91
Rnd3
Darius Alexander
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Alexander. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick92
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
The board had cheaper options than Jared Wilson at pick No. 92, and it noticed. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick137
Rnd4
Kyle Williams
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kyle Williams in pick No. 137, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick172
Rnd5
Chase Lundt
They did well to land Chase Lundt in No. 172, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick175
Rnd5
Nazir Stackhouse
They reached into another round for Nazir Stackhouse, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick212
Rnd6
Caleb Ransaw
Caleb Ransaw in slot 212 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick223
Rnd7
Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at Round 7, Pick 7 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick234
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Donovan Edwards in the 234th overall pick, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
