Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Moore should have been long gone. The Seahawks pounced, and earned a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Malachi Moore, the No. 104 name on the board, stolen at pick 187. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Grant reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In slot 18 they get a disruptor off the edge, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Kenneth Grant in Round 2, Pick 18, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick82 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A premium they did not need to pay, Charles Grant a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick137 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
They barely believed it either: Jared Wilson still on the board at pick No. 137. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick173 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
They will replay Darius Alexander at the 173rd pick for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick187 Rnd6 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore at pick 187 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
