Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Ravens, and a B- to prove it.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Jalen McLeod at slot 183, a reach of 27 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. TeSlaa at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Josh Conerly Jr.
Josh Conerly Jr. in slot 27 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick59 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
No edge and no loss on Azareye'h Thomas in Round 2, Pick 27; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick91 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at the Round 3 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick129 Rnd4 Sai'vion Jones
Sai'vion Jones at No. 129 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick136 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
They jumped the gun on Luke Kandra, taking him earlier than his grade liked. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick176 Rnd5 Jaydon Blue
Jaydon Blue at pick No. 176 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jalen McLeod
A big swing on Jalen McLeod at Round 6, Pick 7, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick203 Rnd6 Desmond Watson
Desmond Watson at pick No. 203 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick210 Rnd6 Howard Cross III
A reach for Howard Cross III in pick 210; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick212 Rnd6 Tyler Batty
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Batty in the Round 6 slot, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick243 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa at the 243rd pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
