2. Baltimore Ravens Draft Grade: A+
The Ravens used the 26th overall selection on Breshad Perriman who is possibly the fastest and highest upside receiver in this draft class. They then proceeded to make great pick after great pick. They gave Joe Flacco some really nice weapons, they got even better on the defensive front seven and they even found a long-term answer at running back.
The Ravens are usually a pretty good drafting team, led by Ozzie Newsome and Eric DeCosta. This year the Ravens hit a home run with each selection. They drafted Maxx Williams ( in the second round, who was the best tight end in this draft class. I had Carl Davis as a great second round prospect the Ravens got him late in the third round with the 90th overall pick. The Ravens also got another dazzling pass rusher in Za’Darius Smith that was a steal with the 122nd selection.
The Ravens helped the defense, while giving Flacco a ton of help on offense. The Ravens are primed for another deep playoff run. They have been to the playoffs 6 of the last seven years and it is because of drafts like this.
