Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Fernando Carmona; the Ravens did not wait, grabbing him 21 spots ahead at pick 249. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In slot 19 they get the heartbeat of the defense at fair value. More want than need.
Pick51 Rnd2 Ja'Kobi Lane
No drama and no debate, Ja'Kobi Lane went about where he belonged in No. 51. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick83 Rnd3 Cayden Green
By-the-book stuff, Cayden Green at the 83rd pick squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick119 Rnd4 Monroe Freeling
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Monroe Freeling. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick159 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves at Round 5, Pick 19 is a conviction pick that outran the value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez in the Round 5 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick174 Rnd5 Isaac Smith
A tidy little value on Isaac Smith in No. 174, a step better than break-even. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick175 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
They did well to land Davison Igbinosun in the 175th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249 Rnd7 Fernando Carmona
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Fernando Carmona well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick253 Rnd7 Cayden Lee
They took Cayden Lee at par in Round 7, Pick 38, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
