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

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Ravens did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to running back, which was the need that mattered most.

The Ford pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Getting Mims where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims slipping to pick No. 30 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick62 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro at the 62nd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick93 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A reach for Jaden Hicks in No. 93; a little patience would have been rewarded. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick131 Rnd4 Kamal Hadden
They liked Kamal Hadden enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 131. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick134 Rnd4 Javion Cohen
Javion Cohen at slot 134 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
A conviction pick on Jaylan Ford at the 164th pick that the board grades a round light. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick248 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
They took Joshua Cephus at par in Round 7, Pick 28, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
