Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

There is a lot to like until you notice interior defensive lineman is still a hole. The Ravens never got to the one that mattered most. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The cost of the Harrell reach is exactly the players who went right after him. However the rest shakes out, Thomas Jr. at that price is a win they earned.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Brian Thomas Jr. in slot 32. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick64 Rnd2 Caelen Carson
They took Caelen Carson at par in pick 64, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick95 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at Round 3, Pick 32 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick132 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mike Sainristil. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster at pick No. 134 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jaylen Harrell
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jaylen Harrell. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick253 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at the 253rd overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
