Overall B-
ValueC NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Seahawks: B-.

The Seahawks bet big and early on Joe Milton III, 118 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

With edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on OLB-EDGE is the choice that costs them. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Landing Bortolini that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
No drama and no debate, Byron Murphy II went about where he belonged in Round 1, Pick 22. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick53 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
They took Javon Bullard at par in No. 53, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick78 Rnd3 Javon Solomon
A want over a need in the 78th overall pick: Javon Solomon adds an OLB-EDGE while edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick81 Rnd3 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at slot 81 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick119 Rnd4 James Williams
A curious use of the Round 4 slot. Edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots needed the pick; a safety in James Williams did not.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell in pick 151 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick160 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
They paid sticker price for Trevor Keegan in Round 5, Pick 24, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick194 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing M.J. Devonshire in the Round 6 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick233 Rnd7 Tanor Bortolini
A slide stopped in pick 233, with Tanor Bortolini worth more than the price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
