Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
The Ravens let Chambers fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Ravens watched Steele Chambers slide 45 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

Reaching for Dixon left real value on the table behind him. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. It is not that Solomon is a bad player; it is that the Ravens had louder needs to answer first.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In the Round 1 slot they get a wrecking ball inside at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in slot 62 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick95 Rnd3 Malik Washington
Malik Washington at pick 95 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jamari Thrash
They paid a round early for Jamari Thrash in pick No. 113, more than the board wanted. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick130 Rnd4 Javon Solomon
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went OLB-EDGE with Javon Solomon while clear needs at quarterback, tight end and other spots sat open.
Pick165 Rnd5 Johnny Dixon
This one needs a full-page explanation: Johnny Dixon in the 165th overall pick, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Sataoa Laumea
Steal is underselling it; Sataoa Laumea at No. 174 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick218 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
M.J. Devonshire at the 218th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick228 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
The board had Sheridan Jones higher than slot 228, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick244 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
Circle this one: Steele Chambers at pick 244 is a fall that decides a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick250 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
They barely believed it either: Frank Gore Jr. still on the board at No. 250. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick252 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
Jalen Coker in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
