Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Seahawks bled value on every deal, hence the D.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Seahawks did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

The cost of the Travis reach is exactly the players who went right after him. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
Dallas Turner in slot 16 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
They paid sticker price for Kamren Kinchens in the 34th pick, and that is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick78 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
They took Roman Wilson at par in the 81st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
They talked themselves into Jordan Travis at pick 118, and the board did not agree. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick154 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
Javion Cohen in Round 5, Pick 18 lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A reach for Jared Wiley in pick No. 194; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick236 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
A straight-up fair deal on Nathaniel Watson at No. 236, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
