Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA FutureB-
The Seahawks fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Seahawks spent pick 235 on Omar Speights, a name the board had a full 103 spots lower. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

The James pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 26th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Michael Penix Jr.
A quarterback of that caliber at the 50th pick is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick57 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton in pick No. 57 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick102 Rnd4 DJ James
They barely believed it either: DJ James still on the board at slot 102. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick118 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at pick 118 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick120 Rnd4 Renardo Green
They robbed the room for Renardo Green here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick192 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at the Round 6 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick220 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
Nice patience on Nathaniel Watson, who had no business lasting to the 220th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick235 Rnd7 Omar Speights
They left a pile of value on the table to take Omar Speights this early at the 235th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
