Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall

NeedB

FutureF
Sanders is the plan now, and the Ravens grade out a F. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Ravens started one anyway for Chico Bennett Jr., 337 picks ahead of schedule.
The Starks value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close.
The whole projection now runs through Shedeur Sanders; hit there and everything else looks smarter. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
The verdict is harsh because the weekend was, and there is little to argue.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Shedeur Sanders
In the Round 1 slot they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick26
Rnd1
Will Campbell
In pick No. 26 they get a cornerstone up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33
Rnd2
Luther Burden III
A straight-up fair deal on Luther Burden III at No. 33, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick34
Rnd2
Aeneas Peebles
A conviction pick on Aeneas Peebles at pick 34 that the board grades a round light. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick37
Rnd2
Mykel Williams
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Mykel Williams well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick58
Rnd2
Jalen Milroe
Fair-plus on Jalen Milroe, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick66
Rnd3
Xavier Restrepo
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick No. 66 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick90
Rnd3
Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick103
Rnd4
Colston Loveland
Somehow Colston Loveland was still sitting there in slot 103, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick107
Rnd4
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at Round 4, Pick 6 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick127
Rnd4
Steve Linton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Steve Linton this early at pick 127. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick134
Rnd4
Bear Alexander
Bear Alexander in No. 134 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick135
Rnd4
Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter at the 135th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick155
Rnd5
Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson at the 155th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick162
Rnd5
Collin Schlee
They reached into another round for Collin Schlee, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick174
Rnd5
Julien Simon
Julien Simon at the 174th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick176
Rnd6
Fentrell Cypress II
This one needs a full-page explanation: Fentrell Cypress II in No. 176, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick184
Rnd6
Bryan Felter
A big swing on Bryan Felter at Round 6, Pick 9, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick202
Rnd6
Chico Bennett Jr.
Value said wait; Chico Bennett Jr. in slot 202 says they were not listening. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick211
Rnd6
Beaux Collins
Beaux Collins at the Round 6 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick217
Rnd7
Oronde Gadsden II
A wild overpay on Oronde Gadsden II in pick 217, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick241
Rnd7
Cal Haladay
They talked themselves into Cal Haladay at pick No. 241, and the board did not agree. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick245
Rnd7
Tunmise Adeleye
Tunmise Adeleye at the 245th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
