Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in pick 50: the Seahawks steal Warren and grade out a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Seahawks watched Tyler Warren slide 34 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Reaching for Kandra left real value on the table behind him. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In slot 18 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
The board fumbled Tyler Warren all the way to the 50th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick82 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in pick 82 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick92 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. slipping to pick No. 92 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick137 Rnd4 Will Howard
Will Howard in the 137th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick173 Rnd5 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey slid further than he should have, and No. 173 is lovely value for the running back. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick187 Rnd6 Alex Mastromanno
They reached a country mile for Alex Mastromanno at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick212 Rnd6 Kitan Crawford
Kitan Crawford at Round 6, Pick 34 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick236 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
They robbed the room for Carson Vinson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
