Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueC- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Ravens turned the phones into found money: B.

The Ravens clearly saw something nobody else did in Trey Moore, taking him 128 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

Landing Skattebo that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Pat Surtain II deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick59 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Donovan Jackson this early at slot 59. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaeden Roberts
Value said wait; Jaeden Roberts in pick 91 says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jack Bech
You do not let a wide receiver like Jack Bech reach the 127th pick and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick135 Rnd4 Trey Moore
A big swing on Trey Moore at the Round 4 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick174 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in pick No. 174 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick181 Rnd6 Andres Borregales
Andres Borregales at No. 181 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick201 Rnd6 Nick Nash
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Nick Nash. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick207 Rnd6 Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin at pick No. 207 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick211 Rnd6 Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway in the 211th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick243 Rnd7 Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor at slot 243 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
