Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens let Fitzgerald fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Ryan Fitzgerald, the No. 117 name on the board, stolen at pick 243. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. The Pierce reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Mike Green
A slide stopped in the Round 1 slot, with Mike Green worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick59 Rnd2 Darien Porter
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Darien Porter. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at slot 91 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick127 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Taking Savion Williams in Round 4, Pick 26 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick135 Rnd4 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at No. 135 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick174 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom at the 174th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick181 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
They will replay Cam Skattebo at the 181st overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick201 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
They barely believed it either: Smael Mondon Jr. still on the board at pick No. 201. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick207 Rnd6 Roc Taylor
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Roc Taylor in pick No. 207. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick211 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick243 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
They robbed the room for Ryan Fitzgerald here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
