Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Seahawks.

There is reaching, and then there is Charles Grant at slot 50. The Seahawks jumped the board by 44 and dared it to prove them wrong. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Broughton. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In slot 20 they get protection for the quarterback, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 Charles Grant
They reached into another round for Charles Grant, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick52 Rnd2 Jalen Royals
The board had cheaper options than Jalen Royals at Round 2, Pick 20, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick82 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
A big swing on Darius Alexander at pick 82, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick92 Rnd3 Savion Williams
A straight-up fair deal on Savion Williams at No. 92, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick122 Rnd4 Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson in the 122nd pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick137 Rnd4 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt in Round 4, Pick 35 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick172 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant in No. 172 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick175 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
Somehow Vernon Broughton was still sitting there in slot 175, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick185 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues slid further than he should have, and pick No. 185 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick234 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway in the 234th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
