Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens robbed the room for Skattebo. Final grade: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Cam Skattebo slide, and the Ravens were the ones holding the card at No. 136. Highway robbery.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. If Ingram-Dawkins pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Nic Scourton
In slot 27 they get a double-digit-sack hope. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Donovan Jackson at Round 2, Pick 27 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick91 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Darien Porter at the Round 3 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick129 Rnd4 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in pick No. 129 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick136 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
A running back of that caliber at No. 136 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick176 Rnd5 Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins
They paid a round early for Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins in pick 176, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick183 Rnd6 Tyler Cooper
Tyler Cooper at the 183rd pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick203 Rnd6 Caleb Rogers
Caleb Rogers in the 203rd overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick210 Rnd6 Addison West
No edge and no loss on Addison West in Round 6, Pick 34; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick212 Rnd6 Alex Mastromanno
They paid up for Alex Mastromanno at pick No. 212 when waiting would have done the job. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick243 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway at the Round 7 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
