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

Nobody else had Jalen Rivers anywhere near No. 201. The Ravens did, by 127 spots, and that gap is the whole story. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The Lawson steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Benjamin Morrison
In pick No. 28 they get an island corner, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick59 Rnd2 Armand Membou
Armand Membou in the 59th pick is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick92 Rnd3 Dani Dennis-Sutton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dani Dennis-Sutton this early at No. 92. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
The board fumbled Quinshon Judkins all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jaeden Roberts
A wild overpay on Jaeden Roberts in the 135th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174 Rnd5 Deontae Lawson
They robbed the room for Deontae Lawson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick181 Rnd6 CJ West
CJ West in the 181st pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick201 Rnd6 Jalen Rivers
They reached a country mile for Jalen Rivers at Round 6, Pick 26, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick207 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in No. 207 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jonas Sanker
Jonas Sanker slid further than he should have, and the Round 6 slot is lovely value for the safety. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick244 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in pick 244 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
