Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureB
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Seahawks a B.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Maason Smith, 46 picks early at the Round 3 slot. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Landing Corley that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In No. 25 they get a disruptive interior force at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick65 Rnd3 Maason Smith
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Maason Smith well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick81 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley in slot 81 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick102 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen in Round 4, Pick 2 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick118 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
A reach on Roger Rosengarten in the 118th overall pick; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick142 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
They liked Kitan Oladapo enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 5 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick169 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
They will replay Luke McCaffrey at Round 5, Pick 33 for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick179 Rnd6 Fabien Lovett
They paid sticker price for Fabien Lovett in pick No. 179, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick192 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at the Round 6 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick235 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
They reached a country mile for Matthew Jones at pick 235, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
