Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB-
The Seahawks won the night they stopped Tracy Jr. from sliding. Grade: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Tyrone Tracy Jr. had no business being available in Round 6, Pick 17, and the Seahawks did the only sane thing and turned in the card. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They are betting Jacobs proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In the 30th pick they get a blindside protector at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Junior Colson
Junior Colson at the 62nd overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick81 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at pick 81 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick102 Rnd4 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at slot 102 is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick118 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A reach on Beaux Limmer in Round 4, Pick 18; the board had better options right there. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick179 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at pick No. 179 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick192 Rnd6 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Tyrone Tracy Jr. in No. 192, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick235 Rnd7 Caedan Wallace
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
