Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Ravens a A-.

The Ravens bet big and early on Donovan Jackson, 40 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. Little to argue with here, and the A- says so.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The Harmon steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Bottom line, with Tyler Booker leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in slot 41 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick42 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
The board had Kenneth Grant higher than the 42nd overall pick, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick46 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Donovan Jackson this early at the Round 2 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Fair-plus on Xavier Watts, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick53 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
They reached into another round for Donovan Ezeiruaku, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick61 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
They barely believed it either: Derrick Harmon still on the board at Round 2, Pick 29. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick62 Rnd2 Denzel Burke
No drama and no debate, Denzel Burke went about where he belonged in pick No. 62. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick82 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ajani Cornelius well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
