ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Ravens: B-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Ravens spent slot 243 on Korey Foreman, a name the board had a full 110 spots lower.

They banked enough surplus on Judkins to cover a lot of smaller sins. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In pick No. 27 they get a cornerstone up front, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick59 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
They read the board right and Xavier Watts was the payoff at No. 59. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick91 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
They let Tate Ratledge come to them and pounced at the 91st overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick127 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
They paid sticker price for O'Donnell Fortune in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick135 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in Round 4, Pick 34 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick174 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Quinshon Judkins in the 174th pick, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick181 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at pick 181 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick201 Rnd6 Jimmy Horn Jr.
Jimmy Horn Jr. at the 201st pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick207 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
No drama and no debate, Hayden Conner went about where he belonged in slot 207. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick211 Rnd6 Deion Burks
Deion Burks in Round 6, Pick 36 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick243 Rnd7 Korey Foreman
They left a pile of value on the table to take Korey Foreman this early at No. 243. It fills a real need, too.
