Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks drew a line under the quarterback search with Nix: B-.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Bo Nix is the Seahawks' quarterback, full stop.

If Speights pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Burke pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In pick 15 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
Pick79 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke in pick No. 79 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick80 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson in the 80th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick115 Rnd4 Tate Ratledge
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tate Ratledge. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks at the 121st overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick152 Rnd5 Sataoa Laumea
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Sataoa Laumea at Round 5, Pick 16. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick193 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Omar Speights at slot 193 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick236 Rnd7 Gavin Bartholomew
They talked themselves into Gavin Bartholomew at No. 236, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
