Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Ravens and Judkins: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Quinshon Judkins had no business being available in the 176th overall pick, and the Ravens did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

Every board in the league had Jones Jr. lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 26th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick58 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
They robbed the room for Luther Burden III here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick90 Rnd3 Clay Webb
Value with a capital V on Clay Webb in pick 90, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant in No. 127 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick135 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Emery Jones Jr. in the Round 4 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart in Round 5, Pick 36 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick176 Rnd6 Quinshon Judkins
Somehow Quinshon Judkins was still sitting there in pick No. 176, and they pounced on premier running back value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick184 Rnd6 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at slot 184 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick202 Rnd6 Kevin Winston Jr.
They paid sticker price for Kevin Winston Jr. in Round 6, Pick 27, and that is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jihaad Campbell
Steal is underselling it; Jihaad Campbell at pick No. 211 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick241 Rnd7 Kyren Lacy
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kyren Lacy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
