Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA FutureD
The Seahawks turned the phones into found money: B.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Chad Lindberg in No. 233, a good 66 spots before the room expected him. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Spending an early pick on S-EDGE with wide receiver, running back and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. The Bishop value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
No edge and no loss on Dallas Turner in slot 16; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick38 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
A straight-up fair deal on J.J. McCarthy at No. 38, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick78 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
The board had Payton Wilson higher than the 78th overall pick, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick107 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in Round 4, Pick 7 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jalyx Hunt
Of all the spots to shop, they chose S-EDGE. Jalyx Hunt in the Round 4 slot leaves wide receiver, running back and other spots for later.
Pick145 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Cole Bishop at pick No. 145. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick151 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden slipping to the 151st overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick194 Rnd6 Ethan Driskell
No drama and no debate, Ethan Driskell went about where he belonged in the 194th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick233 Rnd7 Chad Lindberg
Chad Lindberg at pick No. 233 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
