Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
The Seahawks did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Seahawks shredded theirs for Devin Culp. He came off 68 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

The James pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In the 16th pick they get a cornerstone up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick49 Rnd2 Michael Penix Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Michael Penix Jr. at slot 49 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick102 Rnd4 Junior Colson
Circle this one: Junior Colson at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick118 Rnd4 DJ James
DJ James in pick No. 118 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick192 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Nathaniel Watson well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick235 Rnd7 Devin Culp
They talked themselves into Devin Culp at pick 235, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
