Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks cashed the board's mistake on Simon: B.

The board owed the Seahawks one, and it paid up: Cody Simon, the No. 122 name on the board, sitting there at pick 234 like a gift left on the doorstep. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick No. 18 they get a ballhawk on the back end. Need was not the driver here.
Pick50 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Kenneth Grant reach slot 50 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick82 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at the Round 3 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Circle this one: Jake Majors at the 136th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick171 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
A running back of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 34 is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at pick 183 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick210 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell in the 210th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Cody Simon
They barely believed it either: Cody Simon still on the board at No. 234. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
