Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Ravens: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Ravens took Jordan Travis at the 143rd overall pick, roughly 30 spots before his name belonged.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took James. They punted on interior defensive lineman, 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.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tyler Guyton in the Round 2 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick62 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at Round 2, Pick 30 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick69 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in the 69th pick is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick72 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
No edge and no loss on Cooper Beebe in pick No. 72; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick105 Rnd4 DJ James
DJ James at No. 105 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick114 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
They paid sticker price for Cedric Gray in slot 114, and that is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick116 Rnd4 James Williams
A conviction pick on James Williams at pick No. 116 that the board grades a round light. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick130 Rnd4 Josh Newton
A quiet steal in the 130th pick: Josh Newton for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick135 Rnd4 Christian Jones
Nothing to complain about; Christian Jones went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jordan Travis well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick228 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Frank Gore Jr.. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick250 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones in the Round 7 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
