Grand theft in slot 250: the Ravens steal Bertrand and grade out a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Ravens were there to profit. JD Bertrand, the No. 223 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 250. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They are betting Thomas proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Tyler Guyton
In pick No. 30 they get a blindside protector. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They let Xavier Legette come to them and pounced at the 62nd overall pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick93 Rnd3 Malik Washington
Malik Washington in slot 93 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick113 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
They took Braelon Allen at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick130 Rnd4 Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas in pick 130 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson in Round 5, Pick 29 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick218 Rnd6 Kalen King
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Kalen King in No. 218, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Julian Pearl
No drama and no debate, Julian Pearl went about where he belonged in the 228th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick250 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand in pick 250 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
