Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B-.

The Seahawks spent the pick that matters most on Bo Nix, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The Smith pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at linebacker and interior defensive lineman. That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Gore Jr. has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

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

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In pick No. 15 they get a franchise quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick77 Rnd3 Maason Smith
Of all the spots to shop, they chose DT-EDGE. Maason Smith in slot 77 leaves linebacker and interior defensive lineman for later.
Pick79 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
The board had cheaper options than Christian Haynes at No. 79, and it noticed. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick115 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Brenden Rice. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick152 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
They liked Ben Sinnott enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 5, Pick 16. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick193 Rnd6 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick236 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at the 236th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
