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

Somebody in pick No. 218 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Ravens sat still while Johnny Dixon, the No. 191 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They will answer for taking OLB-EDGE early while interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots went begging. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick 30 they get an island corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Malachi Corley
No edge and no loss on Malachi Corley in slot 62; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick93 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni in No. 93 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick113 Rnd4 Javon Solomon
Of all the spots to shop, they chose OLB-EDGE. Javon Solomon in Round 4, Pick 13 leaves interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots for later.
Pick130 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the 130th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick165 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at the 165th overall pick is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick218 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
A cornerback of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick228 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at pick No. 228 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick250 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Michael Barrett in pick 250. A minor need, but a need all the same.
