For all the boxes ticked, the Ravens skipped the loudest one: cornerback is exactly as bare as it was.

Reaching for Tiernan left real value on the table behind him. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.
