Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Seahawks: B.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Seahawks never addressed quarterback, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Brade. They are betting Booker proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 JC Latham
In slot 16 they get a blindside protector at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at No. 78 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick81 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
No drama and no debate, Roman Wilson went about where he belonged in the 81st pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick119 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Nice patience on Beau Brade, who had no business lasting to the Round 4 slot. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick151 Rnd5 Austin Booker
Austin Booker in pick 151 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick194 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
No edge and no loss on JD Bertrand in pick No. 194; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick233 Rnd7 Blake Watson
A straight-up fair deal on Blake Watson at Round 7, Pick 13, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
