Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B

More right than wrong for the Seahawks, and a B to prove it.

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

The cost of the Crumedy reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Means falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 16th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick81 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They did well to land Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in No. 81, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102 Rnd4 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens at slot 102 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick118 Rnd4 Will Shipley
A straight-up fair deal on Will Shipley at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick179 Rnd6 Cedric Johnson
They liked Cedric Johnson enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 179. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jaden Crumedy
Jaden Crumedy at Round 6, Pick 17 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick235 Rnd7 Bub Means
A slide stopped in the 235th pick, with Bub Means worth more than the price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
