Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall D+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureD-
The Ravens bled value on every deal, hence the D+.

The war room fell hard for Shaun Dolac, and it showed at pick 243: 96 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. TeSlaa falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a mismatch in the passing game, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick29 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In pick 29 they get a true top target at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick59 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Value with a capital V on Aireontae Ersery in No. 59, a genuine coup. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick62 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
Nothing to complain about; Azareye'h Thomas went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick98 Rnd3 Joshua Farmer
A premium they did not need to pay, Joshua Farmer a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick128 Rnd4 Ryan Fitzgerald
They reached into another round for Ryan Fitzgerald, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick129 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton at No. 129 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick132 Rnd4 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten at slot 132 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick136 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra at Round 4, Pick 34 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick150 Rnd5 Elijah Roberts
They left a pile of value on the table to take Elijah Roberts this early at pick No. 150. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick176 Rnd5 Fadil Diggs
They reached a country mile for Fadil Diggs at the Round 5 slot, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
Pick179 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
They took Quincy Riley at par in the 179th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at the 183rd overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick196 Rnd6 R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens at pick 196 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick203 Rnd6 Phil Mafah
Phil Mafah in No. 203 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick205 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Upton Stout slid further than he should have, and the 205th pick is lovely value for the safety. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick212 Rnd6 Brady Cook
They talked themselves into Brady Cook at the Round 6 slot, and the board did not agree. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick218 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
A wild overpay on Zeek Biggers in Round 7, Pick 2, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick242 Rnd7 Isas Waxter
This one needs a full-page explanation: Isas Waxter in pick No. 242, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick243 Rnd7 Shaun Dolac
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Shaun Dolac. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick245 Rnd7 Kai Kroeger
Kai Kroeger at slot 245 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick253 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
They robbed the room for Isaac TeSlaa here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
