FutureB-
The Seahawks drew a line under the quarterback search with McCarthy: B. They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. J.J. McCarthy is the Seahawks' quarterback, full stop. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
The cost of the McCarthy reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Rice falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
J.J. McCarthy
In No. 19 they get a long-term answer under center, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick78
Rnd3
Brenden Rice
They read the board right and Brenden Rice was the payoff at the 78th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick83
Rnd3
Christian Mahogany
Fair-plus on Christian Mahogany, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87
Rnd3
Braden Fiske
A reasonable price with a little left over, Braden Fiske in slot 87. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick119
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at the Round 4 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick129
Rnd4
Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe in the 129th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick150
Rnd5
Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at pick 150 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick151
Rnd5
Ty'Ron Hopper
No edge and no loss on Ty'Ron Hopper in pick No. 151; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick174
Rnd5
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at Round 5, Pick 38 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick213
Rnd6
Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the Round 6 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick233
Rnd7
Omar Speights
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Omar Speights at pick No. 233 is the proof. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
