Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Ravens bled value on every deal, hence the D-.

The Ravens put a flag in the ground for Derrick Moore, 41 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. The math is unkind, and the D- follows.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

The McDonald pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 Kayden McDonald
Kayden McDonald slid further than he should have, and the 34th pick is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick39 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
Olaivavega Ioane at pick 39 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick59 Rnd2 Derrick Moore
They reached a country mile for Derrick Moore at slot 59, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick70 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
They reached into another round for Jacob Rodriguez, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick80 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
Nothing to complain about; Malik Muhammad went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick90 Rnd3 Caden Curry
They paid a round early for Caden Curry in pick 90, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick141 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
No drama and no debate, Kevin Coleman Jr. went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick152 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
A reasonable price with a little left over, Davison Igbinosun in the 152nd pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick163 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
Good price on DJ Campbell in the 163rd overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick172 Rnd5 Gunner Stockton
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Gunner Stockton well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick173 Rnd5 Barion Brown
Barion Brown in No. 173 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jordan Hall
They jumped the gun on Jordan Hall, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick239 Rnd7 Noah Thomas
Noah Thomas at slot 239 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
