Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Ravens for King: D-.

The Ravens lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. If Jones pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

That King pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get an anchor for the offensive line at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick42 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in the Round 2 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick62 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They paid a round early for Xavier Legette in the 62nd overall pick, more than the board wanted. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick93 Rnd3 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at the 93rd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick128 Rnd4 Nelson Ceaser
They went early on Nelson Ceaser in pick 128, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Value said wait; Jarrian Jones in No. 131 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Isaiah Adams
Isaiah Adams in Round 4, Pick 34 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick164 Rnd5 Kalen King
Kalen King in slot 164 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick226 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace at the 226th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick248 Rnd7 Jawhar Jordan
A conviction pick on Jawhar Jordan at the 248th pick that the board grades a round light. The roster fit checks out.
