FutureB-
The Ravens did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-. The Keaten Wade selection is the head-turner. The Ravens reached 68 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.
That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The Ravens clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In the Round 1 slot they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick43
Rnd2
Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse in pick 43 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick45
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at the 45th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick80
Rnd3
Jadarian Price
Jadarian Price at slot 80 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick94
Rnd3
Jacob Rodriguez
A big swing on Jacob Rodriguez at pick No. 94, well ahead of any board in the building. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick115
Rnd4
Tacario Davis
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tacario Davis. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick126
Rnd4
Zachariah Branch
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Zachariah Branch at the Round 4 slot is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick130
Rnd4
Jalon Kilgore
They read the board right and Jalon Kilgore was the payoff at slot 130. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick153
Rnd5
Aamil Wagner
Aamil Wagner at the 153rd pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick161
Rnd5
Gunner Stockton
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Gunner Stockton. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick168
Rnd5
Patrick Payton
Patrick Payton at the 168th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick173
Rnd5
Oscar Delp
A straight-up fair deal on Oscar Delp at pick No. 173, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick174
Rnd5
Isaiah Jatta
Value said wait; Isaiah Jatta in Round 5, Pick 35 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick210
Rnd6
Ricardo Hallman
They paid up for Ricardo Hallman at No. 210 when waiting would have done the job. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211
Rnd6
London Humphreys
This one needs a full-page explanation: London Humphreys in the 211th overall pick, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick220
Rnd7
Ethan Onianwa
Ethan Onianwa in pick 220 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick228
Rnd7
Da'Shawn Womack
Da'Shawn Womack at the 228th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick232
Rnd7
Keaten Wade
A wild overpay on Keaten Wade in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick246
Rnd7
Jamari Lyons
A real head-scratcher, Jamari Lyons in No. 246 is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick249
Rnd7
Preston Hodge
Preston Hodge at slot 249 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick250
Rnd7
DeVonta Smith
A swing that ignored the value entirely, DeVonta Smith well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick252
Rnd7
Roderick Kearney
Roderick Kearney at pick No. 252 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
