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

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Jake Golday got past him. The Seahawks do not have to explain a thing at the Round 3 slot. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They will need Washington Jr. to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Chris Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 32 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. More want than need.
Pick64 Rnd2 Mike Washington Jr.
Mike Washington Jr. at the Round 2 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick96 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Jake Golday in No. 96 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
