Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureB
Grand theft in pick 81: the Seahawks steal Melton and grade out a B+.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Seahawks walked out of the weekend still thin at edge rusher, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

Melton at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Reaching for Gargiulo left real value on the table behind him. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In the 30th overall pick they get an anchor for the defensive front at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at slot 62 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick78 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Nothing to complain about; Jaden Hicks went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick81 Rnd3 Max Melton
Somehow Max Melton was still sitting there in the 81st pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick119 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
They took Sataoa Laumea at par in pick No. 119, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
They paid sticker price for Jordan Travis in the Round 5 slot, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick194 Rnd6 Nick Gargiulo
They liked Nick Gargiulo enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 194. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick233 Rnd7 Tip Reiman
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tip Reiman at the 233rd pick. The roster fit checks out.
