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

Somebody in Round 7, Pick 30 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Ravens sat still while Kimani Vidal, the No. 210 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

Reaching for Murphy left real value on the table behind him. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in pick 30 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick62 Rnd2 Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick93 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Khyree Jackson at No. 93 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick113 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in Round 4, Pick 13 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jalyx Hunt
They took Jalyx Hunt at par in the 130th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick165 Rnd5 James Williams
A conviction pick on James Williams at slot 165 that the board grades a round light. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick218 Rnd6 Evan Williams
They jumped the gun on Evan Williams, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick228 Rnd7 Myles Murphy
Value said wait; Myles Murphy in the 228th pick says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick250 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal in slot 250 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
