Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall F
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureD-
The Seahawks answered their biggest question with Daniels. Grade: F.

The Seahawks went off the board in a big way for Hayden Hatten, 83 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. So much rides on Jayden Daniels that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

With linebacker and running back unsolved, spending premium capital on DT-EDGE is the choice that costs them. The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.

There is no spinning it; the board won this weekend going away.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In No. 8 they get a long-term answer under center. A real need, handled.
Pick13 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick 13 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick16 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 16th pick they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. More want than need.
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They went early on Xavier Legette in pick No. 33, and the value did not follow. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick44 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
No drama and no debate, Ja'Tavion Sanders went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Pick59 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
By-the-book stuff, T'Vondre Sweat at the 59th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick74 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard at No. 74 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick78 Rnd3 Maason Smith
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick No. 78 on Maason Smith with linebacker and running back unsolved.
Pick81 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
They liked Sedrick Van Pran enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 3, Pick 17. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick101 Rnd4 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland in the 101st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick118 Rnd4 Cade Stover
Of all the spots to shop, they chose TE-EDGE. Cade Stover in slot 118 leaves linebacker and running back for later.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
Good price on Jordan Travis in the Round 5 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick154 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
They took Ainias Smith at par in pick 154, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick157 Rnd5 Christian Jones
They left a pile of value on the table to take Christian Jones this early at the 157th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
They reached a country mile for Miles Frazier at No. 180, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick194 Rnd6 Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas at the 194th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick236 Rnd7 Khordae Sydnor
Khordae Sydnor in pick 236 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick239 Rnd7 Hayden Hatten
A real head-scratcher, Hayden Hatten in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jordan Toles
Jordan Toles at pick No. 247 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
