Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesC- FutureB+
The Seahawks let Ransom fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

When a board-topper like Lathan Ransom slides to pick 160, you do not overthink it, and the Seahawks did not. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In slot 18 they get a building block for the line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
They let Tyleik Williams come to them and pounced at pick 50. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick82 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
They read the board right and Elijah Arroyo was the payoff at No. 82. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Somehow Jayden Higgins was still sitting there in pick No. 92, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick103 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
They will replay Donovan Jackson at the 103rd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick137 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in the Round 4 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick160 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
They barely believed it either: Lathan Ransom still on the board at Round 5, Pick 22. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick172 Rnd5 Kyle McCord
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Kyle McCord in the 172nd pick, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick175 Rnd5 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II at the 175th pick is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. It fills a real need, too.
Pick223 Rnd7 Kyle Williams
Taking Kyle Williams in the 223rd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick234 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
No drama and no debate, Teddye Buchanan went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
