Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall

FutureB
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Ravens a B. Some picks age like wine; Jamaree Caldwell at the 174th pick will need to, sitting 98 spots clear of his grade. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
They banked enough surplus on Judkins to cover a lot of smaller sins. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.
The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick26
Rnd1
Jack Sawyer
In pick No. 26 they get a problem off the edge, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54
Rnd2
Aireontae Ersery
A real head-scratcher, Aireontae Ersery in Round 2, Pick 22 is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick119
Rnd4
Andrew Mukuba
Circle this one: Andrew Mukuba at slot 119 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick124
Rnd4
Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison at pick 124 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick135
Rnd4
Harold Perkins Jr.
A linebacker of that caliber at the 135th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jamaree Caldwell
Jamaree Caldwell in No. 174 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick177
Rnd6
Quinshon Judkins
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Quinshon Judkins in pick No. 177, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick194
Rnd6
Donovan Jackson
Somehow Donovan Jackson was still sitting there in slot 194, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick197
Rnd6
Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at Round 6, Pick 22 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick210
Rnd6
Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211
Rnd6
Barrett Carter
Taking Barrett Carter in the 211th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick239
Rnd7
Tim Smith
Tim Smith at the 239th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
