Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Ravens lost the trade table, and the D tells the story.

Some picks age like wine; Gino Garcia at the 205th overall pick will need to, sitting 82 spots clear of his grade. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. Getting Higgins where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and running back is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Jonah Savaiinaea
In No. 27 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Xavier Watts in Round 2, Pick 27. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick69 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas at the 69th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick77 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
A reach for Donovan Jackson in the 77th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Savion Williams
They took Savion Williams at par in pick No. 91, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick176 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in the Round 5 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick178 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
The board fumbled Jay Higgins all the way to slot 178, and they scooped it up. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick185 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson at pick No. 185 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick205 Rnd6 Gino Garcia
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Gino Garcia well ahead of where he belonged. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick213 Rnd6 Chase Lundt
Taking Chase Lundt in pick 213 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Andrew Armstrong
A big swing on Andrew Armstrong at the 245th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
