Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureC
The Seahawks left with their quarterback, and a D- to match.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Seahawks did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

The whole projection now runs through Jayden Daniels; hit there and everything else looks smarter. The Rice reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

James falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the Round 1 slot they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick22 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
They paid sticker price for Amarius Mims in the 22nd overall pick, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick50 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
No edge and no loss on T'Vondre Sweat in the 50th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick74 Rnd3 Bralen Trice
Nothing to complain about; Bralen Trice went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick78 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Brenden Rice. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick117 Rnd4 DJ James
DJ James in slot 117 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick151 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at Round 5, Pick 15 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
