Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Seahawks won the night they stopped Starks from sliding. Grade: B+.

Whoever sat across the table from the Seahawks should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

They banked enough surplus on Starks to cover a lot of smaller sins. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They are betting Slater proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland in No. 50 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick52 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jalon Walker in the 52nd pick, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick56 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They barely believed it either: Malaki Starks still on the board at pick No. 56. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick82 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor is a better player than pick 82 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick92 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ozzy Trapilo at Round 3, Pick 28. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick137 Rnd4 Jackson Slater
They liked Jackson Slater enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 137. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick172 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They paid a round early for Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 172nd overall pick, more than the board wanted. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick175 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
A premium they did not need to pay, Vernon Broughton a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick223 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey slid further than he should have, and slot 223 is lovely value for the tight end. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
They did well to land Jermari Harris in pick No. 234, just ahead of his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
