Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
Larceny in pick 165 lands the Ravens a B, Foster and all.

You could see the war room lean forward. Javon Foster at the 165th overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

If Jones pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
They took Ladd McConkey at par in pick No. 35, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick62 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
By-the-book stuff, Kiran Amegadjie at slot 62 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick94 Rnd3 DJ James
DJ James in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick96 Rnd3 Andru Phillips
No edge and no loss on Andru Phillips in pick 96; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick113 Rnd4 Christian Jones
This one needs a full-page explanation: Christian Jones in No. 113, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jamari Thrash
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jamari Thrash. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick165 Rnd5 Javon Foster
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Javon Foster in Round 5, Pick 29, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick176 Rnd6 Xavier Thomas
A slide stopped in the 176th pick, with Xavier Thomas worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick215 Rnd6 Fabien Lovett
They robbed the room for Fabien Lovett here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick218 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
A tidy bit of business in slot 218, where Kendall Milton graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
Pick226 Rnd7 Tahj Washington
Steal is underselling it; Tahj Washington at the 226th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick228 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at pick 228 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick250 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in No. 250 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
They paid sticker price for Jalen Coker in the 251st pick, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
