Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens left with their quarterback, and a B- to match.

The Ravens bet big and early on Jalen Thompson, 76 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Everything downstream of Arch Manning depends on Arch Manning, and the building knows it. They banked enough surplus on Downs to cover a lot of smaller sins.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Arch Manning
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term answer under center, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Caleb Downs
Circle this one: Caleb Downs at the 63rd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick95 Rnd3 Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling in slot 95 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick131 Rnd4 Chase Bisontis
Chase Bisontis slid further than he should have, and pick No. 131 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick143 Rnd5 Nic Anderson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Nic Anderson at Round 5, Pick 5. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick170 Rnd5 Trey Moore
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Trey Moore well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jalen Thompson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jalen Thompson. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick175 Rnd5 Lee Hunter
Nice patience on Lee Hunter, who had no business lasting to Round 5, Pick 37. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jeremiah Cobb
Jeremiah Cobb in pick No. 244 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick246 Rnd7 Haynes King
No edge and no loss on Haynes King in the Round 7 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
