Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Seahawks for Thornton Jr.: B+.

Call it larceny. Dont'e Thornton Jr. sat on the board until Round 7, Pick 18, and the Seahawks did not need to be asked twice.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Reaching for Lachey left real value on the table behind him.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In slot 20 they get a blindside protector at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick59 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. at pick 59 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick82 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
A tidy little value on Tate Ratledge in Round 3, Pick 18, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick85 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Omarr Norman-Lott in the Round 3 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick91 Rnd3 Quinn Ewers
They took Quinn Ewers at par in No. 91, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick121 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
Somehow Carson Schwesinger was still sitting there in the 121st overall pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick137 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in pick No. 137 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick173 Rnd5 Lander Barton
Lander Barton at the 173rd pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick176 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans in Round 5, Pick 37 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick187 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
They liked Luke Lachey enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 187. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jack Kiser at the 212th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick213 Rnd6 Ja'Quinden Jackson
Circle this one: Ja'Quinden Jackson at slot 213 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick236 Rnd7 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the Round 7 slot, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
