Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Ravens let Barron fall and pounced. Final grade: C+.

You build a draft on nights like this. Jahdae Barron had no business being available in pick No. 213, and the Ravens did the only sane thing and turned in the card. It nets out a thoroughly average C+.

They are betting Crenshaw-Dickson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Josh Conerly Jr.
A conviction pick on Josh Conerly Jr. at pick 27 that the board grades a round light. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jackson Slater
Jackson Slater in the 59th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jared Ivey
Nice patience on Jared Ivey, who had no business lasting to pick No. 91. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick128 Rnd4 Antwane Wells Jr.
Antwane Wells Jr. at slot 128 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick136 Rnd4 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
They reached into another round for Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick176 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
They will replay Cam Skattebo at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick178 Rnd5 James Burnip
You do not let a specialist like James Burnip reach No. 178 and blink. They did not. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick185 Rnd6 Tyler Baron
Tyler Baron at Round 6, Pick 7 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick205 Rnd6 Gino Garcia
A wild overpay on Gino Garcia in pick 205, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jahdae Barron
A cornerback of that caliber at the 213th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jordan James
Jordan James in the Round 7 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
