Grading the Seahawks’ Draft

Grade: A-

Best Pick: S Nick Emmanwori, No. 35 Overall

What We Liked: Lots of jumping on the fallers, a strategy that will always get my approval. Emmanwori and Elijah Arroyo specifically feel like players who fell more based on happenstance than actual inferior play. I like this as a landing spot for Jalen Milroe too — give him a chance to learn behind Sam Darnold and get up to speed with NFL play, hopefully allow him to reach that untapped upside everyone was excited about. Getting Grey Zabel early also feels like a good move for a team that was putting out turnstiles on the interior.

Not Sure About: I don’t feel particularly confident in most of the Day 3 flyers, even Tory Horton who was once considered a Day 2 guy. It feels like he’s a really big injury risk. The others just aren’t particularly talented with Robbie Ouzts and Rylie Mills being the least interesting of the bunch, two guys who have the build of NFL players but not really the skills to back it up. I don’t have confidence in any of these guys to be regular contributors.
