Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueA NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Seahawks and Henderson: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. TreVeyon Henderson at pick 173 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 20th pick they get a load in the middle, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Jahdae Barron
Steal is underselling it; Jahdae Barron at Round 2, Pick 19 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick84 Rnd3 Clay Webb
Clay Webb slid further than he should have, and pick No. 84 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick136 Rnd4 Tyler Warren
A tight end of that caliber at the 136th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick173 Rnd5 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in slot 173 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick187 Rnd6 Deontae Lawson
The board fumbled Deontae Lawson all the way to the Round 6 slot, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick210 Rnd6 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster in pick 210 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick236 Rnd7 Gunnar Helm
Circle this one: Gunnar Helm at No. 236 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
