Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Ravens.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Ravens took Dayon Hayes a full 99 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

However the rest shakes out, Cornelius at that price is a win they earned. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick59 Rnd2 Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart in No. 59 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick91 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A straight-up fair deal on Charles Grant at Round 3, Pick 27, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick129 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rylie Mills. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick136 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Cobee Bryant at pick No. 136. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick176 Rnd5 Connor Colby
No drama and no debate, Connor Colby went about where he belonged in the 176th overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick183 Rnd6 Kalel Mullings
Steal is underselling it; Kalel Mullings at pick No. 183 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick203 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
Taking Ajani Cornelius in pick 203 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick210 Rnd6 Sam Brown Jr.
Sam Brown Jr. at the Round 6 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick212 Rnd6 Dayon Hayes
Dayon Hayes in the 212th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick243 Rnd7 Gino Garcia
Gino Garcia at Round 7, Pick 27 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
