Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall F
ValueD+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Weaver reach set a tone the Seahawks could not shake: F.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Seahawks started one anyway for J.J. Weaver, 97 picks ahead of schedule. The board sounded every alarm, and the F is the fallout.

They banked enough surplus on Ransom to cover a lot of smaller sins. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up.

In the end, a class that has to defy its grades just to matter.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Donovan Jackson
In pick No. 18 they get an anchor for the offensive line, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jihaad Campbell at pick 50 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick59 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. in the 59th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick82 Rnd3 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in slot 82 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Tai Felton
They took Tai Felton at par in Round 3, Pick 27, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jaxson Dart
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jaxson Dart in the 106th pick, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
They talked themselves into Cobee Bryant at the 136th pick, and the board did not agree. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick171 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Circle this one: Lathan Ransom at Round 5, Pick 34 is a fall that decides a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick183 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
They will replay Joshua Gray at the Round 6 slot for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jamaree Caldwell
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jamaree Caldwell well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick234 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
Value said wait; J.J. Weaver in slot 234 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
