Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Peter Woods got past him. The Ravens do not have to explain a thing at pick 154.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a true top target. A clean fit for the roster.
By-the-book stuff, Olaivavega Ioane at slot 20 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Kenyon Sadiq in pick No. 36 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Fair-plus on R Mason Thomas, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Jordyn Tyson in No. 53 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The roster fit checks out.
Logan Jones at pick 115 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at the 154th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kage Casey. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
DJ Campbell at the 206th pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Ephesians Prysock in Round 6, Pick 30 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Somehow Cole Payton was still sitting there in the 229th overall pick, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Steal is underselling it; Dallen Bentley at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Circle this one: Aaron Graves at No. 253 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
