Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Brown should have been long gone. The Ravens pounced, and earned a B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Logan Brown, the No. 145 name on the board, stolen at Round 6, Pick 34. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The Hamilton reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a rangy last line of defense. Need was not the driver here.
Pick59 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. in No. 59 is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick91 Rnd3 Darien Porter
They read the board right and Darien Porter was the payoff at the Round 3 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick129 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra at the 129th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick136 Rnd4 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier slipping to slot 136 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick176 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
By-the-book stuff, JJ Pegues at the 176th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick183 Rnd6 Nick Nash
They robbed the room for Nick Nash here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick203 Rnd6 Ty Hamilton
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ty Hamilton. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick210 Rnd6 Logan Brown
They will replay Logan Brown at the Round 6 slot for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick212 Rnd6 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong in pick No. 212 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick243 Rnd7 Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler at the 243rd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
