Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Seahawks.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Seahawks did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to linebacker, which was the need that mattered most. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The Spann-Ford pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. However the rest shakes out, Mustapha at that price is a win they earned.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick81 Rnd3 Brandon Dorlus
Brandon Dorlus at slot 81 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick102 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
A tidy little value on Brenden Rice in the 102nd pick, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick118 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A reach on Beaux Limmer in No. 118; the board had better options right there. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick179 Rnd6 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha in pick No. 179 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick192 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the 192nd overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
A conviction pick on Brevyn Spann-Ford at pick 235 that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
