Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Ravens.

The Ravens torched the value chart for Khalid Duke, taking him 63 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the 30th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Ja'Lynn Polk
A conviction pick on Ja'Lynn Polk at slot 62 that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick93 Rnd3 Jonah Elliss
Jonah Elliss in the Round 3 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick113 Rnd4 Josh Newton
They paid up for Josh Newton at pick 113 when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130 Rnd4 Javion Cohen
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Javion Cohen well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at pick No. 165 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick218 Rnd6 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick No. 218 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick228 Rnd7 Khalid Duke
Khalid Duke in the 228th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick250 Rnd7 Marcellas Dial
A reasonable price with a little left over, Marcellas Dial in No. 250. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
