Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall

FutureB-
The Seahawks finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a D-. The Seahawks lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D-.
Whatever Bo Nix becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
They are betting Powers-Johnson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. It is not that Hicks is a bad player; it is that the Seahawks had louder needs to answer first.
The Phillips pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, wide receiver very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick21
Rnd1
Bo Nix
In the 21st overall pick they get a long-term answer under center. A real need, handled.
Pick27
Rnd1
Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the 27th pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick38
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson in the Round 2 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick40
Rnd2
Kamren Kinchens
A clean, defensible pick in pick 40 with a little surplus value in Kamren Kinchens. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick65
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
They paid a round early for Christian Haynes in slot 65, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick78
Rnd3
Christian Mahogany
They paid sticker price for Christian Mahogany in Round 3, Pick 14, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick81
Rnd3
Payton Wilson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Payton Wilson at pick No. 81 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick118
Rnd4
Jaden Hicks
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 118 on Jaden Hicks with wide receiver unsolved.
Pick119
Rnd4
Jaheim Bell
A wild overpay on Jaheim Bell in pick No. 119, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick154
Rnd5
Ty'Ron Hopper
A straight-up fair deal on Ty'Ron Hopper at the 154th pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick158
Rnd5
Chau Smith-Wade
By-the-book stuff, Chau Smith-Wade at slot 158 squarely in line with his ranking. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick168
Rnd5
Zion Tupuola-Fetui
No drama and no debate, Zion Tupuola-Fetui went about where he belonged in pick 168. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick184
Rnd6
Jordan Jefferson
Good price on Jordan Jefferson in the Round 6 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick186
Rnd6
Jaylen Harrell
A premium they did not need to pay, Jaylen Harrell a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick194
Rnd6
Andru Phillips
You do not let a cornerback like Andru Phillips reach Round 6, Pick 19 and blink. They did not. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick199
Rnd6
Braiden McGregor
Braiden McGregor at the 199th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick236
Rnd7
Jase McClellan
Taking Jase McClellan in the Round 7 slot is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick242
Rnd7
Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones in the 242nd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
