Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesD FutureA
Larceny in Round 6, Pick 8 lands the Seahawks a B, Bassa and all.

Call it larceny. Jeffrey Bassa sat on the board until pick No. 183, and the Seahawks did not need to be asked twice.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick44 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at slot 44 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at pick 50 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick82 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Circle this one: Jihaad Campbell at the Round 3 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jake Majors
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jake Majors in No. 136, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick171 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Willie Lampkin. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa in Round 6, Pick 8 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick210 Rnd6 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at pick No. 210 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick234 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 234th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
