Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Ravens and Harrison Jr.: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Marvin Harrison Jr. at pick 62 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

If Milton III pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the 30th overall pick they get a true top target, and a steal at that.
Pick62 Rnd2 Marvin Harrison Jr.
Marvin Harrison Jr. in the 62nd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick93 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany in slot 93 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick113 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
They paid sticker price for Blake Fisher in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick130 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
A straight-up fair deal on Isaac Guerendo at Round 4, Pick 30, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick165 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at pick No. 165 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick218 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at No. 218 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick228 Rnd7 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
The board fumbled Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint all the way to pick 228, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick250 Rnd7 Nathan Thomas
Nathan Thomas at the 250th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
