Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Seahawks cashed the board's mistake on Brooks: B+.

The Seahawks spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Tahj Brooks, the No. 116 name on the board, in pick No. 234.

If Slackman pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

With edge rusher and quarterback unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the Round 1 slot they get a run-stuffing presence up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick29 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick 29 they get a mismatch in the passing game, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick50 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They will replay Jalon Walker at slot 50 for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick79 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Taking Tate Ratledge in Round 3, Pick 15 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick82 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A straight-up fair deal on Charles Grant at the 82nd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jake Majors
A conviction pick on Jake Majors at pick No. 87 that the board grades a round light. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick89 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Nice patience on Darien Porter, who had no business lasting to the 89th pick. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick120 Rnd4 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Somehow Demetrius Knight Jr. was still sitting there in No. 120, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick122 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore at No. 122 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick126 Rnd4 Azareye'h Thomas
A surprising call. With edge rusher and quarterback still to address, they spent the 126th overall pick on Azareye'h Thomas, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick136 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
You do not let a tight end like Mason Taylor reach Round 4, Pick 35 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick171 Rnd5 Xavier Scott
The board had Xavier Scott higher than pick 171, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick183 Rnd6 Joey Slackman
A real head-scratcher, Joey Slackman in pick No. 183 is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick210 Rnd6 Ricky White III
Ricky White III at slot 210 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks in the 234th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
