Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB FutureA
No fireworks, just a tidy B+ for the Ravens.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Nathan Pickering at Round 7, Pick 28, a reach of 95 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

Landing Wilson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In pick 30 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick93 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
They paid sticker price for Blake Fisher in Round 3, Pick 30, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick131 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson in No. 131 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick134 Rnd4 Aki Ogunbiyi
Value said wait; Aki Ogunbiyi in the Round 4 slot says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson slipping to pick No. 164 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick248 Rnd7 Nathan Pickering
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Nathan Pickering well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
