Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Ravens: B.

Of all the ways to open, the Ravens chose the head-scratcher, spending No. 113 on Javon Solomon with running back, quarterback and other spots still wide open.

A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. Every board in the league had Keegan lower, and that gap is the story.

On value alone, McCaffrey makes the weekend a net positive.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In slot 30 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at the 62nd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick93 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
No drama and no debate, Brenden Rice went about where he belonged in the 93rd pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick113 Rnd4 Javon Solomon
A curious use of slot 113. Running back, quarterback and other spots needed the pick; an OLB-EDGE in Javon Solomon did not.
Pick130 Rnd4 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at pick No. 130 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
A tidy bit of business in the Round 5 slot, where Luke McCaffrey graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick218 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Gabe Hall. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick228 Rnd7 Nathan Thomas
Nathan Thomas in No. 228 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick250 Rnd7 Daijahn Anthony
They read the board right and Daijahn Anthony was the payoff at pick 250. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
