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

Call it larceny. JD Bertrand sat on the board until pick 250, and the Ravens did not need to be asked twice.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Nothing gained and nothing lost at the table.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a potential shutdown corner, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Malachi Corley
A straight-up fair deal on Malachi Corley at slot 62, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Value with a capital V on Jaden Hicks in the Round 3 slot, a genuine coup. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick113 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
Good price on Mekhi Wingo in the 113th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at pick 130 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick165 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at the 165th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick215 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
You do not let a wide receiver like Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint reach pick No. 215 and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick218 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
They barely believed it either: Johnny Dixon still on the board at No. 218. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick228 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones is a better player than Round 7, Pick 8 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick250 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand at pick 250 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
