Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks cashed the board's mistake on Stowers: B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Eli Stowers, pick No. 210, roughly 41 picks past where he belonged.

The Wilson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In slot 18 they get a centerfielder for the defense. Need was not the driver here.
Pick50 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Taking Tate Ratledge in the 50th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick82 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Steal is underselling it; Dylan Fairchild at Round 3, Pick 18 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at pick No. 136 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick173 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jared Wilson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jared Wilson. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick210 Rnd6 Eli Stowers
They will replay Eli Stowers at the 210th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick234 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
They reached a country mile for Garrett Dellinger at No. 234, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
