Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Seahawks.

Nobody had Jowon Briggs this high, and it is not close. The Seahawks reached 34 spots to get him at the 235th pick. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In slot 16 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick81 Rnd3 Jonah Elliss
A reach on Jonah Elliss in Round 3, Pick 17; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick102 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at the Round 4 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick118 Rnd4 James Williams
No edge and no loss on James Williams in the 118th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick179 Rnd6 Delmar Glaze
They jumped the gun on Delmar Glaze, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick192 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
M.J. Devonshire in pick No. 192 is fair value, right on his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jowon Briggs
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jowon Briggs in the Round 7 slot, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
