Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The tape said wait; the Seahawks did not. Cody Lindenberg went at pick No. 212, a good 37 picks before the board was ready.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick 18 they get a disruptive interior force. A real need, handled.
Pick50 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow in Round 2, Pick 18 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick82 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at the 82nd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick137 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
Good price on Darius Alexander in No. 137, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jordan Hancock
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jordan Hancock well ahead of where he belonged. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick187 Rnd6 Ricky White III
Ricky White III at pick No. 187 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick212 Rnd6 Cody Lindenberg
A wild overpay on Cody Lindenberg in the Round 6 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick236 Rnd7 Kitan Crawford
Kitan Crawford in pick No. 236 is fair value, right on his grade. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
