Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureA
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Seahawks.

The Seahawks torched the value chart for Trey Taylor, taking him 32 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

That Jackson pick is the receipt they will wave around later. For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain.

They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In the Round 1 slot they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick81 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Nice patience on Jeremiah Trotter Jr., who had no business lasting to slot 81. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick102 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
A real head-scratcher, Theo Johnson in Round 4, Pick 2 is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick118 Rnd4 James Williams
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on James Williams. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick119 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
They jumped the gun on Sataoa Laumea, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174 Rnd5 Brennan Jackson
Brennan Jackson at pick 174 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick179 Rnd6 Tanner McLachlan
A wild overpay on Tanner McLachlan in slot 179, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick192 Rnd6 Justin Rogers
No drama and no debate, Justin Rogers went about where he belonged in pick No. 192. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick233 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at pick 233 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick235 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor in the 235th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
