Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks cashed the board's mistake on Milroe: B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Jalen Milroe at slot 136 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They are betting Davis proves the room right and everyone else wrong. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Tyler Booker
In slot 16 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick47 Rnd2 Deone Walker
They will replay Deone Walker at Round 2, Pick 15 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick78 Rnd3 Malachi Moore
Good price on Malachi Moore in pick 78, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Taking Jalen Milroe in No. 136 is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick173 Rnd5 Dane Key
Dane Key slid further than he should have, and the Round 5 slot is lovely value for the wide receiver. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jeffrey Bassa
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jeffrey Bassa well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick210 Rnd6 J.C. Davis
J.C. Davis at the 210th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick230 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Luke Lachey in the 230th overall pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
