Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Seahawks: C+.

The war room fell hard for Hayden Conner, and it showed at the 175th pick: 90 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron at the Round 1 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick50 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at the 50th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick52 Rnd2 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at Round 2, Pick 20 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick82 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm in slot 82 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They robbed the room for Jayden Higgins here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick137 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
No drama and no debate, Hollin Pierce went about where he belonged in No. 137. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick172 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They liked Dont'e Thornton Jr. enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 172. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick175 Rnd5 Hayden Conner
Value said wait; Hayden Conner in the 175th pick says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jalen Travis
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jalen Travis this early at slot 223. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick234 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Garrett Dellinger well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
