Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall D-
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Ravens lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story.

Some picks age like wine; Richard Jibunor at pick No. 228 will need to, sitting 44 spots clear of his grade. A D- that will need time and luck to look better.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. That Milton pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at pick No. 36 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick40 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in the Round 2 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick62 Rnd2 Austin Booker
Austin Booker at pick 62 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick93 Rnd3 Cam Hart
They paid sticker price for Cam Hart in Round 3, Pick 30, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick130 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Beau Brade at No. 130 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
Value said wait; Jordan Jefferson in the 165th overall pick says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick218 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kendall Milton at the 218th pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick228 Rnd7 Richard Jibunor
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Richard Jibunor well ahead of where he belonged. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick250 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Good price on Josh Proctor in the 250th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
