Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Seahawks a B.

The tape said wait; the Seahawks did not. Frank Gore Jr. went at the 192nd overall pick, a good 34 picks before the board was ready.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 22nd overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in No. 50 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick81 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
They went early on Khyree Jackson in the 81st pick, and the value did not follow. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick102 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
They took Zak Zinter at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick118 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Theo Johnson. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick179 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Joe Milton III well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick192 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Frank Gore Jr.. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick235 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
No edge and no loss on Edefuan Ulofoshio in Round 7, Pick 15; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
