Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Seahawks: B.

Everything else got attention, and wide receiver got none. That is a strange way for the Seahawks to leave a draft. The bottom line is a respectable B.

On value alone, Braswell makes the weekend a net positive. They are betting Glaze proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In Round 1, Pick 26 they get a building block for the line at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Value with a capital V on Chris Braswell in slot 57, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick81 Rnd3 Cade Stover
Cade Stover at the 81st pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick102 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
They paid sticker price for Zak Zinter in pick No. 102, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick118 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
Tyler Davis at the 118th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick179 Rnd6 Delmar Glaze
The board had cheaper options than Delmar Glaze at No. 179, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick192 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Ty'Ron Hopper in pick 192. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick235 Rnd7 Dominique Hampton
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dominique Hampton. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
