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

You build a draft on nights like this. Cam Skattebo had no business being available in pick No. 212, and the Seahawks did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

They are betting Webb proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the Round 1 slot they get protection for the quarterback. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at Round 2, Pick 18 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick82 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins slid further than he should have, and slot 82 is lovely value for the wide receiver. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick137 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
They read the board right and O'Donnell Fortune was the payoff at pick No. 137. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick173 Rnd5 CJ West
Value said wait; CJ West in No. 173 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick187 Rnd6 Clay Webb
Clay Webb in the 187th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick212 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in pick 212 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick236 Rnd7 Lander Barton
Somehow Lander Barton was still sitting there in the 236th overall pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
