Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
The Seahawks turned the phones into found money: B.

The real work happened on the phones. The Seahawks fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Stover pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots.

The cost of the Gentry reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The Sam Hubbard pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In pick 18 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value.
Pick78 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick80 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
They liked Sedrick Van Pran enough to skip the value, taking him in the 80th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick81 Rnd3 Cade Stover
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went TE-EDGE with Cade Stover while clear needs at edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots sat open.
Pick118 Rnd4 Tyrice Knight
A tidy little value on Tyrice Knight in slot 118, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick154 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
They jumped the gun on Joe Milton III, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick194 Rnd6 Christian Jones
By-the-book stuff, Christian Jones at pick No. 194 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick236 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
A reach on Eric Gentry in the 236th pick; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
