Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The Seahawks kept it disciplined and banked a B.

There is reaching, and then there is Ja'Kobi Lane at pick 64. The Seahawks jumped the board by 27 and dared it to prove them wrong. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Wheatley falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse at the 38th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
They did well to land Jake Slaughter in slot 59, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick64 Rnd2 Ja'Kobi Lane
They reached into another round for Ja'Kobi Lane, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick96 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Zakee Wheatley at the 96th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
