Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the 249th pick: the Ravens steal Cisse and grade out a B.

The board owed the Ravens one, and it paid up: Brandon Cisse, the No. 44 name on the board, sitting there at the Round 7 slot like a gift left on the doorstep.

Reaching for Zuhn III left real value on the table behind him. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 David Bailey
In slot 14 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Carnell Tate
You do not let a wide receiver like Carnell Tate reach No. 45 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick80 Rnd3 Olaivavega Ioane
Olaivavega Ioane in pick No. 80 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick115 Rnd4 Cashius Howell
They robbed the room for Cashius Howell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick153 Rnd5 Jordyn Tyson
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Jordyn Tyson in the 153rd overall pick, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick161 Rnd5 Kayden McDonald
They barely believed it either: Kayden McDonald still on the board at pick 161. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick173 Rnd5 Romello Height
Romello Height at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick174 Rnd5 Trey Zuhn III
A wild overpay on Trey Zuhn III in the 174th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick249 Rnd7 Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse in the 249th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick252 Rnd7 Austin Siereveld
Circle this one: Austin Siereveld at pick No. 252 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
