Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Ravens looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Khalid Duke at pick No. 228 regardless, 63 picks early.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
They read the board right and Chop Robinson was the payoff at slot 30. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick62 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kiran Amegadjie. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick93 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Khyree Jackson at No. 93 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
They let Jalen McMillan come to them and pounced at pick No. 113. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick130 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
A reach for Mason McCormick in pick 130; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick165 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at the Round 5 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick218 Rnd6 Trevin Wallace
They paid a round early for Trevin Wallace in the 218th pick, more than the board wanted. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick228 Rnd7 Khalid Duke
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Khalid Duke well ahead of where he belonged. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick250 Rnd7 Blake Watson
Blake Watson at slot 250 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
