Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Ravens would have aced it. Kelby Collins at pick No. 173 is 30 spots clear of where he belonged. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

They banked enough surplus on Moore to cover a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 A'Mauri Washington
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get an anchor for the defensive front, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45 Rnd2 Charlie Becker
Charlie Becker in slot 45 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick80 Rnd3 Terry Moore
Terry Moore in the 80th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick115 Rnd4 A.J. Harris
They left a pile of value on the table to take A.J. Harris this early at No. 115. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick152 Rnd5 Whit Weeks
A quiet steal in the Round 5 slot: Whit Weeks for less than the market said. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick160 Rnd5 Iapani Laloulu
Value with a capital V on Iapani Laloulu in the 160th overall pick, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jacob Ponton
No edge and no loss on Jacob Ponton in No. 172; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick173 Rnd5 Kelby Collins
They reached a country mile for Kelby Collins at pick 173, and the board is aghast. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick249 Rnd7 Xavier Scott
A wild overpay on Xavier Scott in the 249th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick252 Rnd7 Alex Birchmeier
They jumped the gun on Alex Birchmeier, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
