Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grable should have been long gone. The Ravens pounced, and earned a B-.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Ravens left interior defensive lineman untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul.

Getting Grable where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. at the 30th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick62 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice in the Round 2 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick93 Rnd3 Max Melton
They read the board right and Max Melton was the payoff at Round 3, Pick 30. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick113 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
No edge and no loss on Blake Fisher in slot 113; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130 Rnd4 Beau Brade
A straight-up fair deal on Beau Brade at the 130th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick165 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Marist Liufau. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick218 Rnd6 Julian Pearl
A slide stopped in the Round 6 slot, with Julian Pearl worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Frank Gore Jr. at the 228th pick squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick250 Rnd7 Tylan Grable
Tylan Grable at pick 250 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
