Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureC
Penix Jr. is the plan now, and the Seahawks grade out a D-.

Somebody took the Seahawks to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. Too much went sideways, and the D- is the honest tally.

Whatever Michael Penix Jr. becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. The Wiley pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
In No. 10 they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick16 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In pick No. 16 they get a problem off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick78 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson in pick 78 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
Good price on Johnny Wilson in the 81st overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick110 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
They took Leonard Taylor III at par in the 110th pick, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick118 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at the Round 4 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick146 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
A premium they did not need to pay, Braelon Allen a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
They went early on Jared Wiley in slot 194, and the value did not follow. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jeremy Flax
A straight-up fair deal on Jeremy Flax at pick No. 230, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick236 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Matthew Jones. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
