Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesA+ FutureF
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Seahawks a C+.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Seahawks spent the 178th overall pick on Richard Jibunor, a name the board had a full 148 spots lower.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

With edge rusher and running back unsolved, spending premium capital on OLB-EDGE is the choice that costs them. The veteran additions, Germaine Pratt chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In pick No. 23 they get a run-stuffing presence up front, a steep price for the projection.
Pick37 Rnd2 Graham Barton
A clean, defensible pick in pick 37 with a little surplus value in Graham Barton. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick50 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
A reach on Javon Bullard in the 50th pick; the board had better options right there. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick78 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper Beebe. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick81 Rnd3 Javon Solomon
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the Round 3 slot on Javon Solomon with edge rusher and running back unsolved.
Pick86 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
No drama and no debate, Sedrick Van Pran went about where he belonged in slot 86. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at the 118th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick137 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A premium they did not need to pay, Ty'Ron Hopper a notch or two before his time. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick154 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
A conviction pick on Joe Milton III at No. 154 that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick172 Rnd5 Joshua Cephus
Joshua Cephus at pick No. 172 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick178 Rnd6 Richard Jibunor
Richard Jibunor in Round 6, Pick 3 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick194 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in slot 194, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick236 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
They liked Dwight McGlothern enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 7 slot. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
