Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Ravens and Ransom: B.

The Ravens did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Lathan Ransom fell into pick 201.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Reaching for Prather left real value on the table behind him. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 27th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick59 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant at pick No. 59 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Darien Porter
A slide stopped in slot 91, with Darien Porter worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick127 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce slid further than he should have, and the 127th pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick135 Rnd4 Demetrius Knight Jr.
They barely believed it either: Demetrius Knight Jr. still on the board at Round 4, Pick 34. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick174 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at No. 174 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick181 Rnd6 Tyler Cooper
Tyler Cooper in pick 181 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick201 Rnd6 Lathan Ransom
Taking Lathan Ransom in the Round 6 slot is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick207 Rnd6 Andres Borregales
They will replay Andres Borregales at pick No. 207 for years; that is how good the value is. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Dorian Strong
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Dorian Strong in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick243 Rnd7 Kaden Prather
The board had cheaper options than Kaden Prather at slot 243, and it noticed. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
