Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall

FutureB-
The Ravens bled value on every deal, hence the D. The Ravens looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Malachi Lawrence at Round 3, Pick 17 regardless, 56 picks early.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Landing Ioane that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Carnell Tate
In pick 14 they get a true top target. A real need, handled.
Pick47
Rnd2
Olaivavega Ioane
Olaivavega Ioane in No. 47 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick80
Rnd3
Darrell Jackson Jr.
They took Darrell Jackson Jr. at par in the 80th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick81
Rnd3
Malachi Lawrence
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Malachi Lawrence well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick88
Rnd3
Caden Curry
A reach on Caden Curry in pick No. 88; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick90
Rnd3
Daylen Everette
They paid sticker price for Daylen Everette in slot 90, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick113
Rnd4
Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor at No. 113 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick152
Rnd5
Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp in Round 5, Pick 14 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick160
Rnd5
Lander Barton
Lander Barton in the 160th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick172
Rnd5
Eric O'Neill
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Eric O'Neill. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick173
Rnd5
Rayshaun Benny
A straight-up fair deal on Rayshaun Benny at pick No. 173, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249
Rnd7
Ja'Keem Jackson
A conviction pick on Ja'Keem Jackson at slot 249 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick252
Rnd7
Jaquaize Pettaway
Jaquaize Pettaway at pick 252 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
