The steal of the weekend belongs to the Ravens and Coleman: B.

The Ravens did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Keon Coleman fell into the Round 2 slot.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Ravens indulged a want in Smith while a need in interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots stayed open.

The cost of the Smith reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the 30th pick they get a blindside protector at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in the 62nd overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick93 Rnd3 Maason Smith
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Maason Smith at DT-EDGE with interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots open.
Pick131 Rnd4 Andru Phillips
The board had Andru Phillips higher than Round 4, Pick 31, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
A conviction pick on Tykee Smith at pick 134 that the board grades a round light. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick164 Rnd5 Braiden McGregor
They liked Braiden McGregor enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 5 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick226 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at No. 226 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick248 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace slid further than he should have, and pick No. 248 is lovely value for the linebacker. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
