Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks won the night they stopped Castro from sliding. Grade: B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Sebastian Castro at pick No. 184 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Gillotte reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick No. 18 they get a run-stuffing presence up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Ashton Gillotte
A premium they did not need to pay, Ashton Gillotte a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick82 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
A tidy bit of business in pick 82, where Gunnar Helm graded well above the range. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jake Majors
They barely believed it either: Jake Majors still on the board at slot 136. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Barrett Carter
A linebacker of that caliber at the 173rd pick is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick184 Rnd6 Sebastian Castro
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Sebastian Castro in the 184th overall pick, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick210 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
They will replay Joshua Gray at No. 210 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Eli Stowers
Circle this one: Eli Stowers at Round 7, Pick 18 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
