Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
The Ravens let Fitzgerald fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Ryan Fitzgerald at pick No. 245 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The Thornton Jr. reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick59 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at Round 2, Pick 27 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
The board fumbled Alfred Collins all the way to No. 91, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick128 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
They read the board right and Hollin Pierce was the payoff at the 128th pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick136 Rnd4 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dont'e Thornton Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick176 Rnd6 Dorian Strong
A tidy little value on Dorian Strong in pick No. 176, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick178 Rnd6 Jackson Slater
They robbed the room for Jackson Slater here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick185 Rnd6 Pat Bryant
They will replay Pat Bryant at pick 185 for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
They took Jordan Hancock at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa in the 213th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick245 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald at the 245th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
