Draft Grade — Seahawks
Overall

ValueC+

FutureC+
The Seahawks got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Seahawks spent the 234th overall pick on Hayden Conner, a name most had 33 spots down the list. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Emmanwori pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
The Ivan Pace Jr. pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick39
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Nice patience on Jalon Walker, who had no business lasting to pick 39. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick41
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
They will replay Nick Emmanwori at the 41st pick for years; that is how good the value is. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick50
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at the Round 2 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick52
Rnd2
Jayden Higgins
No drama and no debate, Jayden Higgins went about where he belonged in No. 52. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick82
Rnd3
David Walker
They reached a country mile for David Walker at slot 82, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick86
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
They jumped the gun on Jared Wilson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick92
Rnd3
Jordan Phillips
A reach on Jordan Phillips in the 92nd pick; the board had better options right there. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick97
Rnd3
Terrance Ferguson
A big swing on Terrance Ferguson at the 97th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick117
Rnd4
Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at pick No. 117 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick125
Rnd4
Tyler Shough
They liked Tyler Shough enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 125. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick137
Rnd4
O'Donnell Fortune
A conviction pick on O'Donnell Fortune at slot 137 that the board grades a round light. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick151
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They reached into another round for Dont'e Thornton Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick172
Rnd5
Ajani Cornelius
No edge and no loss on Ajani Cornelius in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick175
Rnd5
Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin in Round 5, Pick 37 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick223
Rnd7
Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Value said wait; Jamon Dumas-Johnson in pick No. 223 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick234
Rnd7
Hayden Conner
A real head-scratcher, Hayden Conner in Round 7, Pick 18 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
