Draft Grade — Seahawks

The Seahawks landed square in the muddy middle: C+.

The Edgerrin Cooper pick is the one that will follow the Seahawks into the fall. They took him 26 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They left with linebacker solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Edgerrin Cooper
In pick No. 16 they get the heartbeat of the defense, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Cade Stover
A straight-up fair deal on Cade Stover at the 78th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick81 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
