Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The tape said wait; the Seahawks did not. Braylan Shelby went at the 211th pick, a good 29 picks before the board was ready. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jordan Seaton
In Round 1, Pick 32 they get an anchor for the offensive line, even if it was a touch early. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick64 Rnd2 Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson in No. 64 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick96 Rnd3 Mike Matthews
A reach on Mike Matthews in pick No. 96; the board had better options right there. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick211 Rnd6 Braylan Shelby
A big swing on Braylan Shelby at pick 211, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
