Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
The Ravens did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Ravens did not so much draft Nohl Williams as overpay for him, 102 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The Ransom steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Spending an early pick on linebacker with quarterback and edge rusher open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick39 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
You do not let a linebacker like Jalon Walker reach the 39th overall pick and blink. They did not. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick59 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in the 59th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at Round 3, Pick 27 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick102 Rnd4 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Demetrius Knight Jr. adds a linebacker and leaves quarterback and edge rusher untouched.
Pick109 Rnd4 Dylan Fairchild
They let Dylan Fairchild come to them and pounced at No. 109. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick117 Rnd4 Pat Bryant
A wild overpay on Pat Bryant in the Round 4 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick128 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins at pick No. 128 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jeffrey Bassa
A surprising call. With quarterback and edge rusher still to address, they spent Round 4, Pick 35 on Jeffrey Bassa, a linebacker they were not short of.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
No edge and no loss on Jonah Monheim in slot 149; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick176 Rnd5 Nohl Williams
Nohl Williams at pick 176 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick178 Rnd5 Ty Hamilton
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ty Hamilton well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Andres Borregales
The board fumbled Andres Borregales all the way to No. 185, and they scooped it up. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick205 Rnd6 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom at the Round 6 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick213 Rnd6 Terrance Ferguson
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Terrance Ferguson in the 213th pick, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick245 Rnd7 Justin Walley
They reached into another round for Justin Walley, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
