FutureB-
The Seahawks robbed the room for Nelson. Final grade: B. Call it larceny. Jack Nelson sat on the board until the 215th overall pick, and the Seahawks did not need to be asked twice. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
Reaching for Conner left real value on the table behind him. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. They went 8 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
They bet on numbers rather than a single high pick.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Grey Zabel
Grey Zabel in Round 1, Pick 25 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick50
Rnd2
Harold Fannin Jr.
They took Harold Fannin Jr. at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick52
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in slot 52 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick82
Rnd3
Jordan Burch
They paid sticker price for Jordan Burch in the 82nd overall pick, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in pick 87 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick92
Rnd3
Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond in the 92nd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick108
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
No drama and no debate, Cam Skattebo went about where he belonged in pick No. 108. It fills a real need, too.
Pick135
Rnd4
Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough in No. 135 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick137
Rnd4
Ty Robinson
They reached a country mile for Ty Robinson at No. 137, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick143
Rnd5
Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt at Round 5, Pick 5 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick159
Rnd5
Jack Kiser
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jack Kiser. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick172
Rnd5
Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in slot 172 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.
Pick175
Rnd5
Luke Lachey
A real head-scratcher, Luke Lachey in pick No. 175 is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick196
Rnd6
Jermari Harris
Value said wait; Jermari Harris in pick 196 says they were not listening. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick215
Rnd6
Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at the 215th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick223
Rnd7
Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa at the Round 7 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick224
Rnd7
Desmond Watson
Desmond Watson at slot 224 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick231
Rnd7
Hayden Conner
They left a pile of value on the table to take Hayden Conner this early at Round 7, Pick 15. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick234
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
Steal is underselling it; Donovan Edwards at pick 234 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
