Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks let Shough fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Tyler Shough at No. 172 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The Hawes pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The Mukuba pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In the 18th pick they get a rangy last line of defense. Need was not the driver here.
Pick50 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
No edge and no loss on Marcus Mbow in slot 50; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick52 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
A straight-up fair deal on Donovan Ezeiruaku at the 52nd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick82 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
A quiet steal in pick No. 82: Jayden Higgins for less than the market said. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick92 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They bypassed pressing needs at interior defensive lineman to take Andrew Mukuba, a safety that was not the priority.
Pick137 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
You do not let a linebacker like Smael Mondon Jr. reach the Round 4 slot and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick172 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough in Round 5, Pick 34 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick175 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
A slide stopped in pick 175, with Chase Lundt worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick223 Rnd7 Tahj Brooks
Taking Tahj Brooks in pick No. 223 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. The roster fit checks out.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes at No. 234 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
