Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Ravens for Thrash: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Jamari Thrash slide, and the Ravens were the ones holding the card at Round 5, Pick 29. Highway robbery. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

If Hanson pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In pick No. 30 they get protection for the quarterback. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 DJ James
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing DJ James in the Round 2 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick93 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
No edge and no loss on Brenden Rice in No. 93; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick113 Rnd4 Chau Smith-Wade
They jumped the gun on Chau Smith-Wade, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick130 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
They paid sticker price for Mohamed Kamara in slot 130, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jamari Thrash
Somehow Jamari Thrash was still sitting there in pick 165, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick218 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
They let Kendall Milton come to them and pounced at Round 6, Pick 43. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick228 Rnd7 C.J. Hanson
C.J. Hanson at the 228th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick250 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
A straight-up fair deal on LaDarius Henderson at pick 250, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
