Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall
B
ValueB
NeedB-
TradesA+
FutureC+
The Ravens won the night they stopped Hairston from sliding. Grade: B. The rest of the league will want that one back. Maxwell Hairston tumbling to the Ravens in slot 210 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Ezeiruaku reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Jihaad Campbell
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, reach and all. Need was not the driver here.
Pick49
Rnd2
Donovan Ezeiruaku
A real head-scratcher, Donovan Ezeiruaku in pick 49 is miles ahead of his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick66
Rnd3
Jayden Higgins
No edge and no loss on Jayden Higgins in the Round 3 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick69
Rnd3
Zy Alexander
By-the-book stuff, Zy Alexander at slot 69 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick76
Rnd3
Jared Ivey
Jared Ivey at pick No. 76 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick106
Rnd4
Charles Grant
Charles Grant in No. 106 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick116
Rnd4
Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at the 116th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick129
Rnd4
Miles Frazier
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Miles Frazier at the 129th pick is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick149
Rnd5
Demetrius Knight Jr.
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 11 is the definition of value, full stop. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick153
Rnd5
Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald at pick 153 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick155
Rnd5
Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills in the 155th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick176
Rnd5
Oronde Gadsden II
They jumped the gun on Oronde Gadsden II, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick184
Rnd6
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They did well to land Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 184th pick, just ahead of his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick210
Rnd6
Maxwell Hairston
They barely believed it either: Maxwell Hairston still on the board at slot 210. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick212
Rnd6
Dylan Fairchild
You do not let an offensive lineman like Dylan Fairchild reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick238
Rnd7
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
The board fumbled Antwaun Powell-Ryland all the way to No. 238, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
