Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Seahawks a B-.

The Jackson Hawes pick is the one that will follow the Seahawks into the fall. They took him 82 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Shough. The Seahawks indulged a want in Fortune while a need in wide receiver and running back stayed open.

Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In No. 23 they get a wrecking ball inside at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick50 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A premium they did not need to pay, Demetrius Knight Jr. a notch or two before his time. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick52 Rnd2 Bradyn Swinson
They paid sticker price for Bradyn Swinson in the 52nd pick, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick82 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Andrew Mukuba. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick87 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm at pick No. 87 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick97 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at the 97th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick124 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
They robbed the room for Zy Alexander here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick137 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
They bypassed pressing needs at wide receiver and running back to take O'Donnell Fortune, a cornerback that was not the priority.
Pick139 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin at pick No. 139 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes in Round 5, Pick 34 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick175 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
They will replay Tyler Shough at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick223 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
They talked themselves into Hayden Conner at the 223rd pick, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick234 Rnd7 Moliki Matavao
This one needs a full-page explanation: Moliki Matavao in pick 234, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
