Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B-.

The search is over. The Seahawks handed the keys to Bo Nix, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. That Nelson pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The Smith pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots.

Reaching for Gore Jr. left real value on the table behind him.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Bo Nix
Bo Nix at No. 15 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jackson Powers-Johnson
By-the-book stuff, Jackson Powers-Johnson at Round 3, Pick 13 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick79 Rnd3 Maason Smith
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Maason Smith at DT-EDGE with edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots open.
Pick115 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
They paid sticker price for Donovan Jackson in the 115th overall pick, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick152 Rnd5 McCallan Castles
They took McCallan Castles at par in the 152nd pick, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson in the Round 6 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick236 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Frank Gore Jr. this early at pick No. 236. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
