Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB-
The Ravens let Horton fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Ravens watched Tory Horton slide 93 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In slot 27 they get a ballhawk on the outside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick59 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson slipping to the 59th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick91 Rnd3 Tre Harris
Tre Harris in the 91st pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick129 Rnd4 Tai Felton
Tai Felton at pick No. 129 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick142 Rnd5 Donovan Jackson
Somehow Donovan Jackson was still sitting there in Round 5, Pick 4, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
A tidy bit of business in No. 183, where Jack Nelson graded well above the range. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick203 Rnd6 Tory Horton
You do not let a wide receiver like Tory Horton reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick210 Rnd6 RJ Harvey
A top-tier running back at a bargain, RJ Harvey in pick 210, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick212 Rnd6 Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant at the 212th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick221 Rnd7 Dorian Strong
Steal is underselling it; Dorian Strong at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick243 Rnd7 DJ Giddens
They robbed the room for DJ Giddens here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
