Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks drew a line under the quarterback search with McCarthy: B-.

Start where it matters. The Seahawks took J.J. McCarthy to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

On value alone, Jones makes the weekend a net positive. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

The McCarthy reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy at No. 25 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at the 57th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
They read the board right and Ruke Orhorhoro was the payoff at the Round 3 slot. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick81 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Fair-plus on Junior Colson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick118 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves slipping to pick 118 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick154 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
A clean, defensible pick in Round 5, Pick 18 with a little surplus value in Javion Cohen. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick194 Rnd6 AJ Barner
AJ Barner at pick No. 194 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick236 Rnd7 Stefon Thompson
Stefon Thompson at the 236th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick246 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Somehow Sheridan Jones was still sitting there in Round 7, Pick 26, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
