Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Ravens.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Joey Slackman; the Ravens did not wait, grabbing him 80 spots ahead at the Round 6 slot. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

That Leonard pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Nic Scourton
In the 23rd pick they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick54 Rnd2 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke at pick No. 54 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick85 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor at Round 3, Pick 21 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick124 Rnd4 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at slot 124 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick135 Rnd4 Blake Miller
By-the-book stuff, Blake Miller at No. 135 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards at the 174th overall pick is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick176 Rnd6 Hunter Wohler
They liked Hunter Wohler enough to skip the value, taking him in the 176th pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick177 Rnd6 Joey Slackman
They reached into another round for Joey Slackman, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick197 Rnd6 Anthony Belton
They reached a country mile for Anthony Belton at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick211 Rnd6 Riley Leonard
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Riley Leonard in the 211th overall pick, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick239 Rnd7 Michael Taaffe
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Michael Taaffe. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
