Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

Nobody else had Tyler Batty anywhere near the Round 6 slot. The Ravens did, by 61 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

That Giddens pick is the receipt they will wave around later. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In pick 27 they get a two-high chess piece. Need was not the driver here.
Pick59 Rnd2 Trey Amos
A slide stopped in the 59th pick, with Trey Amos worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
A conviction pick on Dylan Fairchild at pick No. 91 that the board grades a round light. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick129 Rnd4 Kaimon Rucker
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kaimon Rucker in the Round 4 slot, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136 Rnd4 JJ Pegues
A swing that ignored the value entirely, JJ Pegues well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick176 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
A straight-up fair deal on Ajani Cornelius at No. 176, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick183 Rnd6 Tyler Batty
They reached a country mile for Tyler Batty at slot 183, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
They took Jay Higgins at par in the 203rd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick210 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
They will replay DJ Giddens at Round 6, Pick 34 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick212 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at the 212th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick243 Rnd7 Roc Taylor
Roc Taylor at pick 243 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
