Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Ravens spent pick No. 176 on Tristan Leigh, a name most had 123 spots down the list.

That Bailey pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 24th pick they get juice off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick55 Rnd2 Ajani Cornelius
A real head-scratcher, Ajani Cornelius in slot 55 is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick86 Rnd3 DeMonte Capehart
They left a pile of value on the table to take DeMonte Capehart this early at pick 86. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jaeden Roberts
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jaeden Roberts. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant in Round 4, Pick 34 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick174 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten slid further than he should have, and No. 174 is lovely value for the running back. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick176 Rnd6 Tristan Leigh
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Tristan Leigh well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick181 Rnd6 David Bailey
David Bailey at No. 181 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick200 Rnd6 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts slipping to pick 200 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Antonio Williams
Antonio Williams at the 211th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
They let Jake Briningstool come to them and pounced at the 239th pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
