FutureD
Conviction outran the board for the Seahawks, and it cost them: F. The Seahawks clearly saw something nobody else did in Ryan Flournoy, taking him 69 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. The board sounded every alarm, and the F is the fallout.
They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The Smith pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback still on the board.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.
In short, a weekend the front office will want to forget in a hurry.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Jer'Zhan Newton
In slot 12 they get a wrecking ball inside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick14
Rnd1
JC Latham
They paid sticker price for JC Latham in No. 14, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick18
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In the Round 1 slot they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39
Rnd2
Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. at the 39th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick43
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
Nothing to complain about; Xavier Legette went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick45
Rnd2
Zach Frazier
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Zach Frazier. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick58
Rnd2
Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders in No. 58 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick70
Rnd3
Junior Colson
No drama and no debate, Junior Colson went about where he belonged in slot 70. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick78
Rnd3
Maason Smith
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Maason Smith adds a DT-EDGE and leaves quarterback untouched.
Pick80
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the 80th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick81
Rnd3
Cade Stover
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Cade Stover at TE-EDGE with quarterback open.
Pick107
Rnd4
Dominick Puni
Good price on Dominick Puni in Round 4, Pick 7, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick113
Rnd4
Javon Foster
They paid up for Javon Foster at the Round 4 slot when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick115
Rnd4
Jalyx Hunt
Of all the spots to shop, they chose S-EDGE. Jalyx Hunt in pick No. 115 leaves quarterback for later.
Pick118
Rnd4
James Williams
A reach for James Williams in pick 118; a little patience would have been rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick154
Rnd5
Jaylen Wright
By-the-book stuff, Jaylen Wright at pick No. 154 squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick156
Rnd5
Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo in the Round 5 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick157
Rnd5
Theo Johnson
A clean, defensible pick in the 157th overall pick with a little surplus value in Theo Johnson. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick194
Rnd6
Jaylen Harrell
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaylen Harrell. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick200
Rnd6
Gabe Hall
A straight-up fair deal on Gabe Hall at Round 6, Pick 25, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick204
Rnd6
Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in the 204th pick, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick236
Rnd7
Ryan Flournoy
Ryan Flournoy in No. 236 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
