Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly executed. Ravens: C+.

The Ravens bet big and early on Ethan Downs, 91 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. That is a running back worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 JT Tuimoloau
In pick No. 27 they get a premier pass rusher, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
A tidy little value on Marcus Mbow in pick 59, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at the 91st pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick128 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton at Round 4, Pick 27 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish in No. 136 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick176 Rnd5 RJ Harvey
They read the board right and RJ Harvey was the payoff at slot 176. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick178 Rnd5 Ethan Downs
Value said wait; Ethan Downs in pick No. 178 says they were not listening. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick185 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They let Dont'e Thornton Jr. come to them and pounced at slot 185. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick205 Rnd6 Luke Elzinga
Luke Elzinga slipping to pick 205 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick213 Rnd6 Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin at the 213th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Gino Garcia
Gino Garcia at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
