Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureC+
The Seahawks won the night they stopped Pegues from sliding. Grade: D.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Seahawks did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

They will need Matavao to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. That Pegues pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a centerfielder for the defense at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick38 Rnd2 Grey Zabel
Fair-plus on Grey Zabel, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick50 Rnd2 Elic Ayomanor
They took Elic Ayomanor at par in slot 50, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick56 Rnd2 Kyle Kennard
A conviction pick on Kyle Kennard at pick 56 that the board grades a round light. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick82 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
They paid sticker price for Carson Schwesinger in No. 82, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick92 Rnd3 Hollin Pierce
A big swing on Hollin Pierce at the 92nd overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick137 Rnd4 Tyler Shough
No drama and no debate, Tyler Shough went about where he belonged in pick No. 137. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick173 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten at No. 173 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick187 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
A tidy bit of business in the 187th overall pick, where Cobee Bryant graded well above the range. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick212 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
Circle this one: JJ Pegues at pick 212 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick236 Rnd7 Moliki Matavao
A wild overpay on Moliki Matavao in Round 7, Pick 18, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A need, and now a little less of one.
