Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Nobody else had Jaishawn Barham anywhere near pick No. 158. The Ravens did, by 29 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Ashton Gillotte
In the 30th pick they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick62 Rnd2 Tre Harris
A straight-up fair deal on Tre Harris at No. 62, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick94 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
A premium they did not need to pay, Wyatt Milum a notch or two before his time. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick126 Rnd4 Aubrey Burks
They went early on Aubrey Burks in pick 126, and the value did not follow. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jaishawn Barham
A big swing on Jaishawn Barham at Round 5, Pick 30, well ahead of any board in the building. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick190 Rnd6 Xavier Truss
Xavier Truss at the 190th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jalon Daniels
They took Jalon Daniels at par in the 222nd pick, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
