Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B+
ValueA- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Ravens for Torrence: B+.

Call it larceny. Ro Torrence sat on the board until the 257th overall pick, and the Ravens did not need to be asked twice.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick50 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
The board had Ennis Rakestraw Jr. higher than slot 50, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick53 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
A tidy little value on Cooper Beebe in Round 2, Pick 21, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
A quiet steal in pick No. 72: Jermaine Burton for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick93 Rnd3 Renardo Green
Renardo Green at the Round 3 slot is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick111 Rnd4 Caelen Carson
They let Caelen Carson come to them and pounced at the 111th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick113 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Value with a capital V on Zak Zinter in pick 113, a genuine coup. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster in the 130th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick161 Rnd5 James Williams
Taking James Williams in No. 161 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick165 Rnd5 Beau Brade
You do not let a safety like Beau Brade reach pick No. 165 and blink. They did not. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick218 Rnd6 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. at Round 6, Pick 43 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick228 Rnd7 Justin Rogers
Justin Rogers in slot 228 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick250 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at the 250th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick257 Rnd7 Ro Torrence
Ro Torrence in No. 257 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
