Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks let Sanders fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Raheim Sanders had no business being available in the 223rd overall pick, and the Seahawks did the only sane thing and turned in the card. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Reaching for Webb left real value on the table behind him.

They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In No. 18 they get a ballhawk on the back end. Need was not the driver here.
Pick50 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell slipping to pick 50 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick52 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Fair-plus on Aireontae Ersery, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick82 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at Round 3, Pick 18 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at slot 92 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick137 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at pick No. 137 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick172 Rnd5 Clay Webb
Clay Webb at the Round 5 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick175 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune at the 175th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick223 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
You do not let a running back like Raheim Sanders reach the 223rd pick and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick234 Rnd7 LaJohntay Wester
LaJohntay Wester in pick No. 234 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
