Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens won the night they stopped Rosemy-Jacksaint from sliding. Grade: B.

The Ravens did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint fell into pick No. 226.

The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Schrader has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In the 30th overall pick they get a press-man option on the boundary, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Junior Colson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Junior Colson at pick No. 62. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick93 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Taking Mike Sainristil in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick131 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Johnny Wilson in the 131st pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick134 Rnd4 Cody Schrader
A wild overpay on Cody Schrader in pick 134, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick164 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at Round 5, Pick 28 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick226 Rnd7 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
The board fumbled Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint all the way to slot 226, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick248 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
Nothing to complain about; LaDarius Henderson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
