Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks bet the future on Milroe. The board says B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Seahawks watched Cam Skattebo slide 60 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

Whatever Jalen Milroe becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. They are betting Milroe proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at Round 1, Pick 18 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick50 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in the Round 2 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick82 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
They left a pile of value on the table to take Luke Kandra this early at slot 82. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick136 Rnd4 Deontae Lawson
A linebacker of that caliber at pick No. 136 is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in the 173rd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick184 Rnd6 Kobe Hudson
No edge and no loss on Kobe Hudson in the 184th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick210 Rnd6 Samuel Brown
Samuel Brown at No. 210 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick234 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
They robbed the room for Seth McLaughlin here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
