Baltimore Ravens

The Ravens fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

The Ravens bet big and early on Kalil Alexander, 46 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The Hecht pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.18 · Pick 18 · Arvell Reese · LB · rank 7
In the 18th pick they get a three-down second-level presence, outstanding value to boot.
R1.23 · Pick 23 · Olaivavega Ioane · OG · rank 22
By-the-book stuff, Olaivavega Ioane at pick 23 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Antonio Williams · WR · rank 64
Good price on Antonio Williams in slot 67, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
R3.10 · Pick 74 · Christen Miller · DL · rank 56
The board fumbled Christen Miller all the way to No. 74, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R4.16 · Pick 116 · Sam Hecht · C · rank 87
Taking Sam Hecht in pick No. 116 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.34 · Pick 134 · Tacario Davis · CB · rank 107
They barely believed it either: Tacario Davis still on the board at the Round 4 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.14 · Pick 154 · Dametrious Crownover · OT · rank 144
Dametrious Crownover at Round 5, Pick 14 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.22 · Pick 162 · Isaiah World · OT · rank 146
Isaiah World in the 162nd overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.33 · Pick 173 · Demond Claiborne · RB · rank 162
Nice patience on Demond Claiborne, who had no business lasting to pick No. 173. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R5.34 · Pick 174 · Jeff Caldwell · WR · rank 189
Jeff Caldwell at pick 174 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R7.25 · Pick 241 · Kalil Alexander · LB-EDGE · rank 287
Kalil Alexander in No. 241 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
R7.34 · Pick 250 · Alan Herron · OT · rank 252
They took Alan Herron at par in the Round 7 slot, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.37 · Pick 253 · Jaren Kanak · TE · rank 227
Jaren Kanak in slot 253 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
