Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
The Seahawks let Jones fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Jarrian Jones had no business being available in pick 192, and the Seahawks did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In slot 22 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at No. 50 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick81 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in pick 81 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick102 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in the 102nd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick118 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Fair-plus on Matt Goncalves, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick179 Rnd6 Tommy Eichenberg
The board fumbled Tommy Eichenberg all the way to Round 6, Pick 4, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jarrian Jones
Taking Jarrian Jones in the 192nd pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick235 Rnd7 Nathan Thomas
They did well to land Nathan Thomas in the Round 7 slot, just ahead of his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
