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

Every other box got a look, but edge rusher did not. The Seahawks will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

That Jones Jr. pick is the receipt they will wave around later. If Knight Jr. pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
In the 18th pick they get a seam-stretching tight end at fair value.
Pick50 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A reach for Demetrius Knight Jr. in slot 50; a little patience would have been rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick52 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in Round 2, Pick 20 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick82 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor in the Round 3 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick92 Rnd3 Quinn Ewers
They paid sticker price for Quinn Ewers in pick No. 92, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick137 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
They read the board right and Emery Jones Jr. was the payoff at the 137th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick172 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
No drama and no debate, Willie Lampkin went about where he belonged in No. 172. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick175 Rnd5 DJ Giddens
DJ Giddens at pick 175 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick223 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens slid further than he should have, and pick 223 is lovely value for the safety. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick234 Rnd7 Mac McWilliams
Mac McWilliams in the 234th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
