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

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Kurtis Rourke, the No. 140 name on the board, stolen at Round 5, Pick 34. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

They are betting Webb proves the room right and everyone else wrong. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
In pick 18 they get a seam-stretching tight end. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Fair-plus on Xavier Watts, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick52 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
A tidy little value on Kaleb Johnson in Round 2, Pick 20, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick82 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
No drama and no debate, Chris Paul Jr. went about where he belonged in the 82nd overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick92 Rnd3 Deone Walker
A clean, defensible pick in No. 92 with a little surplus value in Deone Walker. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick137 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in slot 137 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick172 Rnd5 Kurtis Rourke
Somehow Kurtis Rourke was still sitting there in the 172nd pick, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick175 Rnd5 Clay Webb
Value said wait; Clay Webb in the Round 5 slot says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick223 Rnd7 Ricky White III
Good price on Ricky White III in the 223rd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie is a better player than the Round 7 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
