Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Seahawks and Rouse: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Walter Rouse had no business being available in No. 194, and the Seahawks did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In the 16th pick they get a load in the middle. A real need, handled.
Pick78 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Taking Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in the 78th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick81 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Blake Fisher at pick No. 81 is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
Jarvis Brownlee Jr. at pick 119 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick151 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube in Round 5, Pick 15 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick194 Rnd6 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse at No. 194 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick233 Rnd7 Julian Pearl
Julian Pearl in slot 233 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
