Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Seahawks, and a B to prove it.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Seahawks left running back untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The cost of the Wilson reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In slot 16 they get juice off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick78 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They let Jeremiah Trotter Jr. come to them and pounced at the 78th overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick81 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson in the Round 3 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick118 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea at pick 118 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick154 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
They read the board right and Jordan Travis was the payoff at the 154th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick194 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
A straight-up fair deal on Joshua Gray at pick No. 194, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick236 Rnd7 Fentrell Cypress II
Nothing to complain about; Fentrell Cypress II went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It adds depth where they could use a little.
