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

Somebody in the Round 6 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Seahawks sat still while Oronde Gadsden II, the No. 135 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

They are betting Smith proves the room right and everyone else wrong. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In No. 18 they get a press-man option on the boundary. More want than need.
Pick50 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
A big swing on Donovan Jackson at Round 2, Pick 18, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick82 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
They took Dylan Fairchild at par in the 82nd pick, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Somehow Jake Majors was still sitting there in pick 136, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171 Rnd5 Donovan Smith
They left a pile of value on the table to take Donovan Smith this early at pick No. 171. It fills a real need, too.
Pick183 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at slot 183 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick210 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
They will replay Oronde Gadsden II at the Round 6 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at the 234th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A minor itch, scratched.
