Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Seahawks walked out of the weekend still thin at edge rusher, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The Puni pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The cost of the Gentry reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get protection for the quarterback. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick78 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Payton Wilson in the Round 3 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson in pick No. 81 lands just on the right side of the ledger. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick118 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at the 118th overall pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick154 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen in slot 154 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick194 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Michael Barrett at No. 194 is the proof. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick236 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
They paid a round early for Eric Gentry in pick 236, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
