Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Seahawks won the night they stopped Cowing from sliding. Grade: B.

Somebody in pick 236 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Seahawks sat still while Jacob Cowing, the No. 182 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

They are betting Wilson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick No. 15 they get a bendy edge with upside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick77 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro in the 77th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick79 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
They liked Christian Mahogany enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 3 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick115 Rnd4 Payton Wilson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Payton Wilson in Round 4, Pick 15, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick152 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at No. 152 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick193 Rnd6 Willie Roberts
Willie Roberts at pick 193 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick236 Rnd7 Jacob Cowing
They robbed the room for Jacob Cowing here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
