Draft Grade — Ravens

FutureD-
The Ravens cashed the board's mistake on Claiborne: C+. The Ravens spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Demond Claiborne, the No. 165 name on the board, in the 211th pick. A mixed bag that lands at C+.
If Tucker pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.
On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.
If Arvell Reese and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In slot 18 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker, and a steal at that. Need was not the driver here.
Pick19
Rnd1
Makai Lemon
A tidy bit of business in pick 19, where Makai Lemon graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick45
Rnd2
Jordyn Tyson
Jordyn Tyson in Round 2, Pick 13 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick49
Rnd2
Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon at pick No. 49 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick80
Rnd3
Connor Lew
No edge and no loss on Connor Lew in the 80th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick115
Rnd4
Sam Roush
Somehow Sam Roush was still sitting there in the 115th pick, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick119
Rnd4
Daylen Everette
They barely believed it either: Daylen Everette still on the board at the Round 4 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick154
Rnd5
Nadame Tucker
Nadame Tucker in No. 154 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick162
Rnd5
Oscar Delp
The board fumbled Oscar Delp all the way to the 162nd overall pick, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick173
Rnd5
Travis Burke
A straight-up fair deal on Travis Burke at the Round 5 slot, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick211
Rnd6
Demond Claiborne
Steal is underselling it; Demond Claiborne at pick No. 211 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick235
Rnd7
Cameron Ball
Taking Cameron Ball in the 235th pick is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick250
Rnd7
Alan Herron
Alan Herron in No. 250 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick253
Rnd7
Jalen Huskey
They took Jalen Huskey at par in Round 7, Pick 37, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
