Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Seahawks.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Seahawks reached some 42 spots for Robbie Ouzts, and value like that does not grow back. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Winston Jr.. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 18th pick they get a mismatch in the passing game. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Trey Amos
No drama and no debate, Trey Amos went about where he belonged in pick No. 50. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick82 Rnd3 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter at pick 82 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick92 Rnd3 Riley Leonard
Riley Leonard at the Round 3 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick137 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at Round 4, Pick 36 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick173 Rnd5 Hayden Conner
They left a pile of value on the table to take Hayden Conner this early at the 173rd overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick187 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
They will replay Ollie Gordon II at Round 6, Pick 9 for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick212 Rnd6 Ricky White III
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Ricky White III graded well above the range. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick236 Rnd7 Robbie Ouzts
A wild overpay on Robbie Ouzts in No. 236, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
