Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in No. 173 lands the Seahawks a B, Stutsman and all.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Seahawks were there to profit. Danny Stutsman, the No. 86 name on the board, should have been long gone before the Round 5 slot. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick No. 18 they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value.
Pick50 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jalon Walker in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick82 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
The board fumbled Tyler Warren all the way to pick 82, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Circle this one: Jake Majors at Round 4, Pick 35 is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick173 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
A linebacker of that caliber at the 173rd pick is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick184 Rnd6 Keon Sabb
Taking Keon Sabb in No. 184 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick210 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier in slot 210 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Elijah Arroyo
You do not let a tight end like Elijah Arroyo reach the 234th overall pick and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
