I still think all grades are, well, inconsequential. I mean, it’s all part of what goes into the stew of discussion, right? There’s nothing more to it than that. But since people are talking a lot about grades and how one day later is far too soon, I decided to go back four years because it was over the last year that the Seahawks had to deal with the consequences of two of those picks.
The $31 million extension for Tyler Lockett and the franchise tag/trade of Frank Clark.
I think it’s because of those two moves, both at the times of their selection and their second contracts, that Seattle comes out far ahead with the outcome of the 2015 draft.
