Larceny in slot 248 lands the Ravens a B, Baker and all.

Somebody in the 248th pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Ravens sat still while Javon Baker, the No. 186 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

If Wright pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In slot 30 they get protection for the quarterback at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
They will replay Quinyon Mitchell at pick No. 62 for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick93 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in the 93rd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick134 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher at No. 134 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
Somehow Jordan Travis was still sitting there in pick 164, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick226 Rnd7 Tarheeb Still
They barely believed it either: Tarheeb Still still on the board at the 226th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick248 Rnd7 Javon Baker
Javon Baker at Round 7, Pick 28 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
