Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Ravens a B-.

The Ravens did not so much draft Cody Lindenberg as overpay for him, 40 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Nothing gained and nothing lost at the table.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Aireontae Ersery
In the 27th pick they get a long-term starter on the line, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick59 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
They paid up for Maxwell Hairston at No. 59 when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick105 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
They talked themselves into Nohl Williams at slot 105, and the board did not agree. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jamaree Caldwell
Jamaree Caldwell at the 111th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick129 Rnd4 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
A big swing on Antwaun Powell-Ryland at Round 4, Pick 27, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
Pick140 Rnd5 Nick Nash
They went early on Nick Nash in pick 140, and the value did not follow. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick146 Rnd5 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey in Round 5, Pick 8 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick176 Rnd5 Jaylen Reed
They jumped the gun on Jaylen Reed, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at the 183rd overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick212 Rnd6 Craig Woodson
A conviction pick on Craig Woodson at the Round 6 slot that the board grades a round light. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick219 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
They reached a country mile for Cody Lindenberg at the 219th pick, and the board is aghast. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
