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

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Seahawks were there to profit. Ozzy Trapilo, the No. 85 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 137.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

They will need Ratledge to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick 30 they get a ballhawk on the back end at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick50 Rnd2 Tre Harris
Tre Harris at Round 2, Pick 18 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick53 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
A reasonable price with a little left over, Aireontae Ersery in the 53rd pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick56 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
They paid up for Tate Ratledge at pick No. 56 when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick87 Rnd3 Quinn Ewers
No drama and no debate, Quinn Ewers went about where he belonged in No. 87. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick92 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Maxwell Hairston in the 92nd overall pick, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick124 Rnd4 Will Howard
You do not let a quarterback like Will Howard reach slot 124 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick137 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Somehow Ozzy Trapilo was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick157 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Taking Smael Mondon Jr. in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at No. 172 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick175 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
Circle this one: Mitchell Evans at the 175th pick is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick185 Rnd6 Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant at the 185th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick234 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne in pick No. 234 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
