Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Ravens went off the board in a big way for Jamal Haynes, 97 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

The Ponds steal is the beam this whole class leans on. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In the 14th overall pick they get a true top target at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Blake Miller
A big swing on Blake Miller at slot 45, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick80 Rnd3 D'Angelo Ponds
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, D'Angelo Ponds in pick 80, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jamal Haynes
Jamal Haynes at Round 4, Pick 15 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick152 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
They went early on DJ Campbell in pick No. 152, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick160 Rnd5 Isaiah Jatta
Isaiah Jatta in the 160th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick172 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
Value said wait; Patrick Payton in the 172nd pick says they were not listening. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick173 Rnd5 Kamran James
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kamran James. It fills a real need, too.
Pick249 Rnd7 Keyon Ware-Hudson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Keyon Ware-Hudson this early at pick 249. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick252 Rnd7 Demon Clowney
Demon Clowney in slot 252 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
