Draft Grade — Ravens

FutureC
A weekend the Ravens spent ahead of the board, for worse: F. It is the swing that defines the weekend: Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 155th overall pick, a good 30 spots before the room expected him. Little went right, and the F does not pretend otherwise.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The Moore pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at running back and quarterback. The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.
There is no soft landing here; this class has to massively overperform just to matter.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
Donovan Ezeiruaku
In No. 31 they get a double-digit-sack hope, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick41
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
The board had cheaper options than Alfred Collins at pick No. 41, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick42
Rnd2
Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum at the 42nd pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick59
Rnd2
Darien Porter
They reached a country mile for Darien Porter at the Round 2 slot, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick63
Rnd2
Andrew Mukuba
A big swing on Andrew Mukuba at the 63rd overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick122
Rnd4
Cody Simon
Cody Simon at slot 122 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick129
Rnd4
Ty Hamilton
Ty Hamilton in slot 129 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick136
Rnd4
Malachi Moore
A surprising call. With running back and quarterback still to address, they spent No. 136 on Malachi Moore, a safety they were not short of.
Pick137
Rnd4
O'Donnell Fortune
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for O'Donnell Fortune. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick145
Rnd5
Andres Borregales
They paid a round early for Andres Borregales in the 145th overall pick, more than the board wanted. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick155
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the Round 5 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick172
Rnd5
Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at Round 5, Pick 34 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick173
Rnd5
Clay Webb
They reached into another round for Clay Webb, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick176
Rnd5
CJ West
They liked CJ West enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 176. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick177
Rnd6
Que Robinson
A reach on Que Robinson in slot 177; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick191
Rnd6
Jay Higgins
They paid up for Jay Higgins at No. 191 when waiting would have done the job. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick203
Rnd6
KeAndre Lambert-Smith
They took KeAndre Lambert-Smith at par in the 203rd pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
