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

The Ravens looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Phillip Webb at No. 233 regardless, 116 picks early. The process wobbled, and the D- is where it lands.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. With running back, quarterback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
A conviction pick on Xavier Watts at pick 33 that the board grades a round light. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick50 Rnd2 Bradyn Swinson
They paid up for Bradyn Swinson at the Round 2 slot when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick56 Rnd2 Darien Porter
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Darien Porter well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at Round 3, Pick 8 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick91 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Andrew Mukuba adds a safety and leaves running back, quarterback and other spots untouched.
Pick92 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker in the 92nd pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick109 Rnd4 Logan Brown
They reached into another round for Logan Brown, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick129 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune at the 129th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Andres Borregales
A curious use of the Round 4 slot. Running back, quarterback and other spots needed the pick; a specialist in Andres Borregales did not.
Pick136 Rnd4 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A big swing on Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick 136, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick148 Rnd5 CJ West
CJ West at No. 148 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick183 Rnd6 Que Robinson
Que Robinson at Round 6, Pick 7 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick203 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
No edge and no loss on Nazir Stackhouse in the 203rd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick210 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith in pick No. 210 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick224 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
They reached a country mile for Hayden Conner at Round 7, Pick 8, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick233 Rnd7 Phillip Webb
This one needs a full-page explanation: Phillip Webb in pick No. 233, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
