Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall D+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Seahawks bet the future on McCarthy. The board says D+.

The Seahawks lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. A D+ that will need time and luck to look better.

Everything downstream of J.J. McCarthy depends on J.J. McCarthy, and the building knows it. Sinnott has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, wide receiver very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
A premium they did not need to pay, J.J. McCarthy a notch or two before his time. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin slipping to slot 40 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick66 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They went early on Cooper Beebe in the 66th overall pick, and the value did not follow. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick78 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
A reach on Sedrick Van Pran in pick 78; the board had better options right there. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick81 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Circle this one: Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at the 81st pick is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick111 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyler Davis at No. 111. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick118 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in the Round 4 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick119 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ben Sinnott in pick No. 119, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick120 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A real head-scratcher, Beaux Limmer in the Round 4 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick154 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at pick No. 154 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick157 Rnd5 Grayson Murphy
A conviction pick on Grayson Murphy at the 157th overall pick that the board grades a round light. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick194 Rnd6 Braiden McGregor
Braiden McGregor at pick 194 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick198 Rnd6 Ethan Driskell
A slide stopped in No. 198, with Ethan Driskell worth more than the price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick236 Rnd7 Omar Speights
They robbed the room for Omar Speights here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick241 Rnd7 Xavier Thomas
The board had cheaper options than Xavier Thomas at Round 7, Pick 21, and it noticed. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
