Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall
B+
ValueB+
NeedB-
TradesA+
FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Ravens for Scott: B+. The Ravens did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Keionte Scott fell into slot 115. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The Hill Jr. pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In pick No. 18 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick47
Rnd2
Caleb Banks
Nothing to complain about; Caleb Banks went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick49
Rnd2
Anthony Hill Jr.
A surprising call. With edge rusher still to address, they spent pick 49 on Anthony Hill Jr., a linebacker they were not short of.
Pick82
Rnd3
Eli Stowers
They robbed the room for Eli Stowers here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick113
Rnd4
Sam Hecht
Sam Hecht at the 113th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick115
Rnd4
Keionte Scott
A cornerback of that caliber at the Round 4 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick154
Rnd5
Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts at No. 154 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick162
Rnd5
Dametrious Crownover
You do not let an offensive lineman like Dametrious Crownover reach the 162nd overall pick and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick163
Rnd5
Demond Claiborne
They paid sticker price for Demond Claiborne in the 163rd pick, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick173
Rnd5
Kevin Coleman Jr.
Nice patience on Kevin Coleman Jr., who had no business lasting to slot 173. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick174
Rnd5
Louis Moore
Louis Moore at the Round 5 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick211
Rnd6
Toriano Pride Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Toriano Pride Jr. at Round 6, Pick 30 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick234
Rnd7
Xavier Nwankpa
No edge and no loss on Xavier Nwankpa in pick No. 234; it is a wash and a sensible one. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick250
Rnd7
Nolan Rucci
Nolan Rucci in No. 250 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick253
Rnd7
Jalon Daniels
Jalon Daniels at the 253rd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
