Draft Grade — Seahawks

FutureC-
The Seahawks won the night they stopped Emmanwori from sliding. Grade: B. When a board-topper like Nick Emmanwori slides to No. 50, you do not overthink it, and the Seahawks did not.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.
The Starks pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher still on the board.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick26
Rnd1
Luther Burden III
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Steal is underselling it; Nick Emmanwori at Round 2, Pick 18 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick52
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Malaki Starks at safety with edge rusher open.
Pick58
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
No drama and no debate, Donovan Jackson went about where he belonged in pick 58. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick82
Rnd3
Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter at No. 82 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick90
Rnd3
Devin Neal
Nice patience on Devin Neal, who had no business lasting to the 90th overall pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick92
Rnd3
Deone Walker
A reasonable price with a little left over, Deone Walker in the 92nd pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick137
Rnd4
Denzel Burke
A cornerback of that caliber at pick No. 137 is the definition of value, full stop. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick166
Rnd5
Seth McLaughlin
No edge and no loss on Seth McLaughlin in No. 166; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick172
Rnd5
Tyler Shough
They barely believed it either: Tyler Shough still on the board at pick No. 172. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick175
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
A conviction pick on JJ Pegues at the 175th pick that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick223
Rnd7
Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at Round 7, Pick 7 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick234
Rnd7
Jabbar Muhammad
Jabbar Muhammad in pick 234 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
