Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens cashed the board's mistake on Smith: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Tykee Smith slide, and the Ravens were the ones holding the card at slot 167. Highway robbery.

Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In pick No. 30 they get a building block for the line at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
Taking Bralen Trice in the Round 2 slot is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick93 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette at Round 3, Pick 30 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick130 Rnd4 Braden Fiske
They will replay Braden Fiske at the 130th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jarrian Jones in the 134th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick167 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
Somehow Tykee Smith was still sitting there in pick 167, and they pounced on premier safety value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick251 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
The board fumbled Steele Chambers all the way to No. 251, and they scooped it up. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
