Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens let Fitzgerald fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The board owed the Ravens one, and it paid up: Ryan Fitzgerald, the No. 117 name on the board, sitting there at No. 245 like a gift left on the doorstep. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

If Lundt pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In the 27th overall pick they get juice off the edge, and a steal at that.
Pick59 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Derrick Harmon at the Round 2 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick91 Rnd3 Savion Williams
No drama and no debate, Savion Williams went about where he belonged in No. 91. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick128 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in slot 128 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick136 Rnd4 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt at Round 4, Pick 35 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick176 Rnd6 Kevin Winston Jr.
A safety of that caliber at the 176th pick is the definition of value, full stop. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick178 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
You do not let a running back like Cam Skattebo reach pick No. 178 and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick185 Rnd6 Ja'Corey Brooks
A real head-scratcher, Ja'Corey Brooks in pick 185 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in No. 205 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick213 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at the 213th pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick245 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
A top-tier specialist at a bargain, Ryan Fitzgerald in pick No. 245, plain and simple. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
