Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Ravens lost the trade table, and the D tells the story.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Ravens spent Round 6, Pick 34 on Miles Frazier, a name most had 30 spots down the list. Put together, it is a D.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. They banked enough surplus on TeSlaa to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In the Round 1 slot they get a two-high chess piece. More want than need.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jared Ivey well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick70 Rnd3 Darien Porter
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darien Porter. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick88 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Good price on Donovan Jackson in slot 88, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in No. 91 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick176 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
They paid a round early for Luke Lachey in the 176th pick, more than the board wanted. The roster fit checks out.
Pick183 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A quiet steal in Round 6, Pick 7: Dont'e Thornton Jr. for less than the market said. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick203 Rnd6 Karene Reid
Karene Reid at No. 203 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick210 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Miles Frazier. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick212 Rnd6 Zeek Biggers
They reached into another round for Zeek Biggers, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick243 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Isaac TeSlaa in slot 243, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
