Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Seahawks treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick No. 176 on Eric Gentry a full 89 spots early. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

However the rest shakes out, Lew at that price is a win they earned. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
By-the-book stuff, Olaivavega Ioane at Round 1, Pick 32 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick74 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane at the Round 3 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick96 Rnd3 Connor Lew
The board fumbled Connor Lew all the way to slot 96, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick109 Rnd4 Malachi Lawrence
They left a pile of value on the table to take Malachi Lawrence this early at pick 109. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick176 Rnd5 Eric Gentry
Value said wait; Eric Gentry in No. 176 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick211 Rnd6 Dijon Johnson
The board had cheaper options than Dijon Johnson at the 211th overall pick, and it noticed. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
