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

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Drake Nugent in No. 176, a good 34 spots before the room expected him. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Hart value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
No edge and no loss on Kingsley Suamataia in pick No. 63; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick93 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
No drama and no debate, Jalen McMillan went about where he belonged in slot 93. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick113 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Cam Hart in pick 113 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 Kalen King
A reach on Kalen King in No. 130; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
Javion Cohen at Round 5, Pick 29 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick176 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
They talked themselves into Drake Nugent at the Round 6 slot, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick218 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at pick 218 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
A real head-scratcher, Jalen Coker in the 228th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
They paid sticker price for LaDarius Henderson in No. 250, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
