Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Ravens: B-.

The Ravens looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Antwaun Powell-Ryland at the 91st overall pick regardless, 61 picks early.

On value alone, Sanders makes the weekend a net positive. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In slot 27 they get juice off the edge, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Ozzy Trapilo
A wild overpay on Ozzy Trapilo in the 59th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Antwaun Powell-Ryland well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Joshua Gray
They left a pile of value on the table to take Joshua Gray this early at the 128th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick136 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
They talked themselves into Elijah Roberts at pick No. 136, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick176 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in No. 176 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick178 Rnd5 Luke Elzinga
A premium they did not need to pay, Luke Elzinga a notch or two before his time. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick185 Rnd6 Ben Sauls
Ben Sauls at Round 6, Pick 7 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jabbar Muhammad
The board had cheaper options than Jabbar Muhammad at the Round 6 slot, and it noticed. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick213 Rnd6 Sam Brown
A conviction pick on Sam Brown at slot 213 that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick245 Rnd7 Logan Parr
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Logan Parr. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
