Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens let West fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Call it larceny. Addison West sat on the board until No. 243, and the Ravens did not need to be asked twice. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the 27th overall pick they get a double-digit-sack hope at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick59 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
A tidy bit of business in No. 59, where Aireontae Ersery graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick91 Rnd3 Sebastian Castro
Good price on Sebastian Castro in pick No. 91, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick129 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
A reasonable price with a little left over, Dorian Strong in pick 129. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick136 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rylie Mills. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick176 Rnd5 Jah Joyner
Jah Joyner in the 176th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick183 Rnd6 James Burnip
Steal is underselling it; James Burnip at slot 183 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick203 Rnd6 Raheim Sanders
A running back of that caliber at Round 6, Pick 27 is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Circle this one: Jack Kiser at pick No. 210 is a fall that decides a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick212 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
The board fumbled Dont'e Thornton Jr. all the way to the Round 6 slot, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick243 Rnd7 Addison West
Addison West at the 243rd pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
