Larceny in Round 7, Pick 30 lands the Ravens a B, Pearsall and all.

Somebody in the 250th pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Ravens sat still while Ricky Pearsall, the No. 205 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 JT Tuimoloau
In No. 29 they get a bendy edge with upside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan is a better player than pick 61 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick92 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at pick No. 92 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick129 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
The board fumbled Matt Goncalves all the way to the 129th pick, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in slot 134 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick166 Rnd5 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at the 166th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick250 Rnd7 Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall in Round 7, Pick 30 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
