Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall C
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Ravens lost the trade table, and the C tells the story.

The war room fell hard for Collin Oliver, and it showed at No. 203: 88 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. It nets out a thoroughly average C.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Emmanwori at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The veteran additions, Braxton Jones chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A slide stopped in the 33rd overall pick, with Nick Emmanwori worth more than the price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick39 Rnd2 Wyatt Milum
Fair-plus on Wyatt Milum, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Nothing to complain about; Jihaad Campbell went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins in the 67th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick72 Rnd3 Darien Porter
No drama and no debate, Darien Porter went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 8. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick137 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
They went early on O'Donnell Fortune in No. 137, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick140 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They reached a country mile for Dont'e Thornton Jr. at slot 140, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick149 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Vernon Broughton this early at pick 149. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick150 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
This one needs a full-page explanation: Oronde Gadsden II in No. 150, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick174 Rnd5 Clay Webb
They talked themselves into Clay Webb at the Round 5 slot, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick175 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jay Higgins. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick190 Rnd6 CJ West
A reasonable price with a little left over, CJ West in the 190th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick195 Rnd6 Jarquez Hunter
Jarquez Hunter at pick No. 195 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick200 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
A big swing on Hayden Conner at Round 6, Pick 24, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick203 Rnd6 Collin Oliver
Collin Oliver at pick No. 203 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick210 Rnd6 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at the Round 6 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick225 Rnd7 Gino Garcia
They reached into another round for Gino Garcia, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
