Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureD
The phones sank the Ravens this weekend: D.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Ravens started one anyway for Phillip Webb, 108 picks ahead of schedule. Too much went sideways, and the D is the honest tally.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

That is an interior defensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, running back very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
Princely Umanmielen in No. 27 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick39 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Circle this one: Walter Nolen at Round 2, Pick 7 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick41 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
No drama and no debate, Xavier Watts went about where he belonged in the 41st overall pick. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick59 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
A reach for Tate Ratledge in slot 59; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick91 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
They took Gunnar Helm at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick129 Rnd4 Logan Brown
They went early on Logan Brown in pick 129, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick136 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune at pick No. 136 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick176 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick183 Rnd6 CJ West
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on CJ West. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick203 Rnd6 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in Round 6, Pick 27 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick210 Rnd6 Teddye Buchanan
A real head-scratcher, Teddye Buchanan in No. 210 is miles ahead of his ranking. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick212 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Hayden Conner. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick243 Rnd7 Phillip Webb
Phillip Webb at the 243rd overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
