The steal of the weekend belongs to the Ravens and Jackson: B.

The Ravens spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jha'Quan Jackson, the No. 177 name on the board, in the 218th overall pick.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 30th pick they get a weapon on the perimeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
A slide stopped in the 62nd overall pick, with Cooper Beebe worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick93 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Nice patience on Calen Bullock, who had no business lasting to pick 93. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick113 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
No edge and no loss on Cedric Gray in pick No. 113; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick130 Rnd4 Josh Newton
They let Josh Newton come to them and pounced at the Round 4 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade in Round 5, Pick 29 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick218 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
A wide receiver of that caliber at No. 218 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick228 Rnd7 Caedan Wallace
Taking Caedan Wallace in slot 228 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick250 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
A straight-up fair deal on Kimani Vidal at the 250th pick, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
