Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Ravens for Mullings: D+.

The Ravens looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Miles Frazier at slot 185 regardless, 58 picks early.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. However the rest shakes out, Mullings at that price is a win they earned. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In pick 27 they get a two-high chess piece. Need was not the driver here.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
A slide stopped in No. 59, with Jonah Savaiinaea worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick70 Rnd3 Darien Porter
They paid up for Darien Porter at pick No. 70 when waiting would have done the job. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
The board had cheaper options than Jalen Milroe at the Round 3 slot, and it noticed. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick91 Rnd3 Savion Williams
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Savion Williams. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick128 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
The board had Smael Mondon Jr. higher than pick 128, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick136 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer in No. 136 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick176 Rnd5 Kalel Mullings
Kalel Mullings at the 176th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick178 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at Round 5, Pick 39 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick185 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
They reached a country mile for Miles Frazier at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick205 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They barely believed it either: Dont'e Thornton Jr. still on the board at slot 205. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick213 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley in pick No. 213 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 LaJohntay Wester
They let LaJohntay Wester come to them and pounced at slot 245. A need, and now a little less of one.
