FutureB
The Seahawks bet the future on Penix Jr.. The board says A-. Somebody in Round 7, Pick 10 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Seahawks sat still while Jaylin Simpson, the No. 137 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A-.
Michael Penix Jr. gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.
Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
Michael Penix Jr.
In pick 28 they get the face of the franchise, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick81
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick No. 81 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
No drama and no debate, Zak Zinter went about where he belonged in pick 102. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick108
Rnd4
Jaden Hicks
You do not let a safety like Jaden Hicks reach the Round 4 slot and blink. They did not. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick118
Rnd4
DJ James
DJ James at the 118th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick134
Rnd4
James Williams
A tidy bit of business in slot 134, where James Williams graded well above the range. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick179
Rnd6
Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Tyrone Tracy Jr. at pick No. 179 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick192
Rnd6
Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper in Round 6, Pick 17 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick202
Rnd6
Jaylen Harrell
A straight-up fair deal on Jaylen Harrell at No. 202, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick230
Rnd7
Jaylin Simpson
They barely believed it either: Jaylin Simpson still on the board at the 230th pick. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick235
Rnd7
Justin Rogers
Justin Rogers in the 235th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick248
Rnd7
Kendall Milton
Kendall Milton in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
