Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Ravens get a C+.

The Ravens clearly saw something nobody else did in Jackson Slater, taking him 61 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. A weekend of give and take that grades a C+.

The James pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In slot 27 they get a long-term starter on the line, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick59 Rnd2 Kyle Kennard
They liked Kyle Kennard enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 2 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jackson Slater
They talked themselves into Jackson Slater at the 91st overall pick, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick129 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at pick 129 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jordan James
Jordan James in Round 4, Pick 34 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick176 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton at the 176th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jalen McLeod
Jalen McLeod at slot 183 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
They paid sticker price for Jason Marshall Jr. in pick 203, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick210 Rnd6 Luke Elzinga
They jumped the gun on Luke Elzinga, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick212 Rnd6 Fadil Diggs
They left a pile of value on the table to take Fadil Diggs this early at the 212th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick243 Rnd7 Ja'Corey Brooks
Ja'Corey Brooks at pick No. 243 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
