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

The Jackson Hawes pick is the one that will follow the Seahawks into the fall. They took him 61 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

Getting Cooper where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. It is not that Fortune is a bad player; it is that the Seahawks had louder needs to answer first.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 18th overall pick they get a wrecking ball inside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at the Round 2 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick82 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
No drama and no debate, Ozzy Trapilo went about where he belonged in slot 82. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick86 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
A reach for Zy Alexander in pick 86; a little patience would have been rewarded. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick89 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
A tidy little value on Danny Stutsman in Round 3, Pick 25, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
A reach on Jared Wilson in pick No. 92; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick137 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, O'Donnell Fortune adds a cornerback and leaves edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots untouched.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jack Nelson in the 158th overall pick, miles early. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick166 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
A premium they did not need to pay, JJ Pegues a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick172 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at pick No. 172 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick199 Rnd6 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes in slot 199 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick223 Rnd7 Tyler Cooper
The board fumbled Tyler Cooper all the way to Round 7, Pick 7, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
