62. Christine Michael, RB, Texas A&M: C Grade
I'm all for picking the top player available - it's questionable if Christine Michael qualifies as such - but it has to make some sort of sense. The Seahawks already had Marshawn Lynch and Robert Turbin in the backfield. Where does Michael fit in? This seems like a wasted selection.

87. Jordan Hill, DT, Penn State: C Grade
Even as a Penn State alumnus, I'll say that this is a reach. Jordan Hill probably should have gone in the Round 5 area, but he does fill a need as an interior pass-rusher. The problem is that Hill is terribly inconsistent.
123. Chris Harper, WR, Kansas State: B+ Grade
I thought the Seahawks would go with Quinton Patton, who would have been a better value selection. I do like Chris Harper though. Sidney Rice constantly gets injured, so Seattle needed to find a good Plan B just in case he gets hurt again.
137. Jesse Williams, NT, Alabama: A+ Grade
Jesse Williams, what took you so long? It's unbelievable that he fell this far. Some deemed Williams as a late first-round candidate. I thought he'd fall to the second or third because of the lacking need at the position, but there's no excuse for him lasting this long. He doesn't fill an immediate need for the Seahawks, but he'll be useful down the road.
138. Tharold Simon, CB, LSU: B+ Grade
You have to wonder where Tharold Simon would have gone had he not been arrested on the first night of the draft for intimidating a police officer. There's no questioning that this is a good value pick from a talent standpoint though. Simon is a great fit in Seattle's defense as a tall, lanky corner.
158. Luke Willson, TE, Rice: C+ Grade
I never thought I'd be talking about an "other" Rice tight end, but Luke Willson could have a chance to start down the road because of the lack of talent Seattle has at the position. He's a bit of a reach though.
194. Spencer Ware, RB, LSU: C Grade
Another running back? Why? Spencer Ware fits the range in Round 6, but this seems like a wasted pick.
220. Ryan Seymour, G, Vanderbilt: C Grade
I didn't have Ryan Seymour as a draftable prospect, but it's the seventh round, so who cares? I'm surprised the Seahawks waited this long to address their offensive line.
231. Ty Powell, OLB, Harding: A Grade
Ty Powell probably should have been taken in the fourth round, so I love the value the Seahawks obtained with the Harding product. Powell will provide Seattle with much-needed depth at linebacker.
241. Jared Smith, DT, New Hampshire: C+ Grade
Jared Smith was chosen in the right range, though he'll be buried on the depth chart. He may not make the team.
242. Michael Bowie, OT, Northeast Oklahoma State: C+ Grade
Another needed offensive line pick, though Michael Bowie is unlikely to challenge at the poor right tackle spot anytime soon.
