Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks let Weigman fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Conner Weigman slide, and the Seahawks were the ones holding the card at the Round 6 slot. Highway robbery.

They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Isaiah Bond
A clean, defensible pick in pick 23 with a little surplus value in Isaiah Bond. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick48 Rnd2 Clay Webb
Clay Webb at pick No. 48 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick54 Rnd2 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson in Round 2, Pick 22 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick79 Rnd3 Jabbar Muhammad
Value with a capital V on Jabbar Muhammad in the Round 3 slot, a genuine coup. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at the 115th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick136 Rnd4 Ben Yurosek
Ben Yurosek at slot 136 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick172 Rnd5 Cashius Howell
Cashius Howell at No. 172 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick193 Rnd6 Dasan McCullough
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dasan McCullough. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick210 Rnd6 Conner Weigman
Conner Weigman in the 210th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jack Velling
They paid sticker price for Jack Velling in Round 7, Pick 14, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
