Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureD-
The Seahawks drew a line under the quarterback search with Nix: B-.

Start where it matters. The Seahawks took Bo Nix to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They are betting Toles proves the room right and everyone else wrong. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In Round 1, Pick 8 they get a mismatch in the passing game at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick16 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In pick No. 16 they get juice off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick20 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In the Round 1 slot they get the face of the franchise. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Fair-plus on Tyler Nubin, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick40 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
A straight-up fair deal on Ja'Tavion Sanders at No. 40, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick47 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in pick 47 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick52 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A reach for Jackson Powers-Johnson in the 52nd pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
Jermaine Burton slipping to slot 74 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick78 Rnd3 D.J. James
They read the board right and D.J. James was the payoff at pick 78. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick81 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes at the 81st pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick84 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
They talked themselves into Marshawn Kneeland at Round 3, Pick 20, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick109 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
They paid sticker price for Donovan Jackson in No. 109, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick118 Rnd4 Junior Colson
Junior Colson in the 118th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick120 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jordan Travis well ahead of where he belonged. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick145 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
They paid a round early for Ainias Smith in pick No. 145, more than the board wanted. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick154 Rnd5 Justin Rogers
They liked Justin Rogers enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 5 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick194 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at pick 194 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick236 Rnd7 Jordan Toles
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan Toles in Round 7, Pick 16, miles early. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
