Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B+
ValueA+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens won the night they stopped Sapp from sliding. Grade: B+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Tyreak Sapp got past him. The Ravens do not have to explain a thing at the 244th pick. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Francis Mauigoa
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63 Rnd2 Arch Manning
Arch Manning in the 63rd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick95 Rnd3 LT Overton
The board fumbled LT Overton all the way to Round 3, Pick 31, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick131 Rnd4 Cayden Green
They robbed the room for Cayden Green here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick143 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton in pick 143 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick170 Rnd5 Zane Durant
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Zane Durant reach No. 170 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick172 Rnd5 Charles Jagusah
Circle this one: Charles Jagusah at the 172nd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick175 Rnd5 Eric Singleton Jr.
Taking Eric Singleton Jr. in slot 175 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick244 Rnd7 Tyreak Sapp
Tyreak Sapp at pick No. 244 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick246 Rnd7 Eli Stowers
They barely believed it either: Eli Stowers still on the board at Round 7, Pick 30. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
