Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall
D+
ValueC
NeedB
TradesF
FutureC-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Ravens to a D+. There is conviction, and then there is this. The Ravens took Dont'e Thornton Jr. a full 34 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. Put together, it is a D+.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, running back very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick37
Rnd2
Donovan Ezeiruaku
They jumped the gun on Donovan Ezeiruaku, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick50
Rnd2
Xavier Watts
Fair-plus on Xavier Watts, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick52
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
A straight-up fair deal on Alfred Collins at Round 2, Pick 20, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick59
Rnd2
Darien Porter
A big swing on Darien Porter at the 59th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick61
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
They took Donovan Jackson at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick136
Rnd4
O'Donnell Fortune
A premium they did not need to pay, O'Donnell Fortune a notch or two before his time. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick148
Rnd5
Andres Borregales
No edge and no loss on Andres Borregales in slot 148; it is a wash and a sensible one. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick149
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 149th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick179
Rnd6
Clay Webb
They paid up for Clay Webb at No. 179 when waiting would have done the job. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick192
Rnd6
Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in pick 192 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick195
Rnd6
Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at pick No. 195 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick212
Rnd6
Isaac TeSlaa
A wild overpay on Isaac TeSlaa in the 212th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
