Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Ravens, and a B- to prove it.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: George Gumbs Jr., 40 picks early at the Round 5 slot. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Caldwell at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In Round 1, Pick 18 they get a matchup weapon at tight end at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
No edge and no loss on Lee Hunter in pick No. 45; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick80 Rnd3 Treydan Stukes
Treydan Stukes at No. 80 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick97 Rnd3 Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The roster fit checks out.
Pick115 Rnd4 Brian Parker II
A tidy little value on Brian Parker II in pick 115, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick154 Rnd5 George Gumbs Jr.
A big swing on George Gumbs Jr. at slot 154, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick162 Rnd5 Demond Claiborne
By-the-book stuff, Demond Claiborne at the Round 5 slot squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick173 Rnd5 Aamil Wagner
They paid sticker price for Aamil Wagner in No. 173, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
They read the board right and Beau Stephens was the payoff at Round 5, Pick 34. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jeff Caldwell
Jeff Caldwell at pick No. 211 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
