Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Ravens a B.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Tyler Loop; the Ravens did not wait, grabbing him 65 spots ahead at No. 245.

That Tuten pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
A reasonable price with a little left over, Nick Emmanwori in slot 27. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick58 Rnd2 Darien Porter
Darien Porter at pick No. 58 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jordan Burch
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jordan Burch this early at the 59th pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Good price on Donovan Jackson in the 88th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at the Round 3 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick176 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick 176 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick178 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at the 178th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick185 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in Round 6, Pick 7 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick205 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 205th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick213 Rnd6 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in No. 213 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tyler Loop
Tyler Loop at pick 245 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
