Draft Grade — Seahawks

ValueA- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Seahawks for Stackhouse: B.

The Seahawks did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Nazir Stackhouse fell into the Round 7 slot.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. If Crawford pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 18th pick they get a potential shutdown corner at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick50 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland in slot 50 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick82 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
They let Tate Ratledge come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick137 Rnd4 Kobe King
A tidy little value on Kobe King in the 137th overall pick, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Nick Nash
Steal is underselling it; Nick Nash at No. 173 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick187 Rnd6 Donovan Edwards
By-the-book stuff, Donovan Edwards at pick No. 187 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick212 Rnd6 Kitan Crawford
A wild overpay on Kitan Crawford in pick 212, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick236 Rnd7 Nazir Stackhouse
They will replay Nazir Stackhouse at Round 7, Pick 18 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
