Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB+
Quarterback settled, Penix Jr. in the fold, and a D+ for the Seahawks.

The tape said wait; the Seahawks did not. Taulia Tagovailoa went at the 235th pick, a good 53 picks before the board was ready.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. Whatever Michael Penix Jr. becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Landing Polk that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and edge rusher is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
Michael Penix Jr. at pick No. 18 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the quarterback. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick40 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A straight-up fair deal on T'Vondre Sweat at the 40th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick96 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
The board fumbled Ja'Lynn Polk all the way to pick 96, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
The board had Jaden Hicks higher than the Round 4 slot, and the safety fell to them anyway. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick116 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in slot 116 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick120 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Nothing to complain about; Matt Goncalves went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick179 Rnd6 Sione Vaki
They robbed the room for Sione Vaki here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in pick 210 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick235 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa at the 235th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
