Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Ravens lost the trade table, and the D tells the story.

Nobody had Oronde Gadsden II this high, and it is not close. The Ravens reached 58 spots to get him at the Round 4 slot. It grades a D, and the process earned it.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. The Alexander steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, running back very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Mike Green
In the 27th overall pick they get a bendy edge with upside. A real need, handled.
Pick59 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
No edge and no loss on Donovan Jackson in Round 2, Pick 27; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick86 Rnd3 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at slot 86 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick91 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They let Andrew Mukuba come to them and pounced at pick No. 91. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick125 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 125 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick129 Rnd4 Logan Brown
They liked Logan Brown enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 4 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick136 Rnd4 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at the 136th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick212 Rnd6 Desmond Watson
A wild overpay on Desmond Watson in Round 6, Pick 36, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick243 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Nice patience on Isaac TeSlaa, who had no business lasting to the Round 7 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
