Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Seahawks a B.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Seahawks did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to quarterback, which was the need that mattered most. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The Rosengarten value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Reaching for Williams left real value on the table behind him. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In No. 16 they get a problem off the edge at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A clean, defensible pick in Round 3, Pick 14 with a little surplus value in Cooper Beebe. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick81 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at the 81st overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick119 Rnd4 James Williams
They paid up for James Williams at the Round 4 slot when waiting would have done the job. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick151 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick No. 151 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick194 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at the 194th pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick233 Rnd7 Blake Watson
A premium they did not need to pay, Blake Watson a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
