Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Ravens.

The Ravens spent real capital to be 60 picks early on Wesley Williams, and the board is going to hold them to it. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Landing McAlister that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Cashius Howell
A reach on Cashius Howell in pick No. 14; the board had better options right there. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick45 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor in pick 45 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick80 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
A quiet steal in the 80th overall pick: Malachi Fields for less than the market said. The roster fit checks out.
Pick115 Rnd4 Max Llewellyn
Max Llewellyn at No. 115 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick154 Rnd5 Tim Keenan III
Tim Keenan III at slot 154 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jalen Farmer
No drama and no debate, Jalen Farmer went about where he belonged in the 162nd pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick173 Rnd5 Ephesians Prysock
They went early on Ephesians Prysock in slot 173, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick174 Rnd5 Keagen Trost
Keagen Trost at pick 174 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Eric McAlister
They barely believed it either: Eric McAlister still on the board at the Round 6 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick250 Rnd7 Desmond Reid
A clean, defensible pick in the 250th pick with a little surplus value in Desmond Reid. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick253 Rnd7 Wesley Williams
A big swing on Wesley Williams at Round 7, Pick 37, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
