Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Ravens: C+.

Some picks age like wine; Elijah Roberts at the 129th overall pick will need to, sitting 51 spots clear of his grade. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

However the rest shakes out, Ransaw at that price is a win they earned. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Bradyn Swinson
In the 27th pick they get a premier pass rusher, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Ashton Gillotte
A real head-scratcher, Ashton Gillotte in Round 2, Pick 27 is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
They paid a round early for Jared Wilson in No. 91, more than the board wanted. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick129 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts at the Round 4 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick136 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
The board fumbled Kyle McCord all the way to pick 136, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick176 Rnd5 RJ Oben
They reached into another round for RJ Oben, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick183 Rnd6 Addison West
Value said wait; Addison West in No. 183 says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick203 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Upton Stout at slot 203 is the proof. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick210 Rnd6 Simeon Barrow Jr.
They paid up for Simeon Barrow Jr. at Round 6, Pick 34 when waiting would have done the job. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick212 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
They let Tahj Brooks come to them and pounced at the Round 6 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick243 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
Caleb Ransaw in the 243rd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
