Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall F
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureD
The Ravens jumped the board for Harrell and paid for it: F.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Ravens did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. A weekend to file away and forget, and an F to match.

They will need Harrell to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

Getting Jones where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

There is no soft landing here: they fought the board and left interior defensive lineman open, and the grade is the bill.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 JC Latham
JC Latham at slot 22 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick30 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick No. 30 they get an island corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick53 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
The board had Keon Coleman higher than the Round 2 slot, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. The roster fit checks out.
Pick62 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
They did well to land Chris Braswell in Round 2, Pick 30, just ahead of his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick82 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Good price on Cooper Beebe in the 82nd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick131 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at pick 131 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick134 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
Nice patience on Kris Abrams-Draine, who had no business lasting to No. 134. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
They went early on Jaylen Wright in the 146th overall pick, and the value did not follow. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick160 Rnd5 Renardo Green
Fair-plus on Renardo Green, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick170 Rnd5 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. at pick No. 170 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
They reached a country mile for Jaylen Harrell at No. 189, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick226 Rnd7 Christian Jones
Christian Jones slipping to the 226th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
