The Seahawks clearly saw something nobody else did in Matthew Sluka, taking him 33 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

It is not that Sabb is a bad player; it is that the Seahawks had louder needs to answer first. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
