Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Ravens a B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Gino Garcia at the 213th overall pick, a reach of 74 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

That is a quarterback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a wrecking ball inside at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
Jared Ivey at the Round 2 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick91 Rnd3 Savion Williams
They took Savion Williams at par in pick No. 91, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick128 Rnd4 Logan Brown
This one needs a full-page explanation: Logan Brown in No. 128, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick136 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
They reached a country mile for Cobee Bryant at pick 136, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick176 Rnd5 Miles Frazier
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Miles Frazier well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick178 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They paid sticker price for Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 178th pick, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick185 Rnd6 Kyle McCord
Somehow Kyle McCord was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 7, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish at the Round 6 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick213 Rnd6 Gino Garcia
A big swing on Gino Garcia at slot 213, well ahead of any board in the building. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick245 Rnd7 Eric Gregory
Eric Gregory in pick 245 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
