1. Baltimore Ravens-B+
Round 1 • Pick 25 (25) • WR Marquise Brown
Round 3 • Pick 22 (85) • OLB Jaylon Ferguson
Round 3 • Pick 30 (93) • WR Miles Boykin
Round 4 • Pick 11 (113) • RB Justice Hill
Round 4 • Pick 21 (123) • G Ben Powers
Round 4 • Pick 25 (127) • CB Iman Lewis-Marshall
Round 5 • Pick 22 (160) • DT Daylon Mack
Round 6 • Pick 25 (197) • QB Trace McSorley
The ravens had a very successful draft, not only did they improve in many areas including hopefully getting a main target for Lamar Jackson but also go very very very Fast. Miles Boykin will be a starter day one and Jaylon Ferguson will hopefully be a Terrell Suggs replacement. Justice Hill has a good chance of being a big part of this back field with it no only appearing to be by committee but also he could rise as a feature back. The only pick I saw as not that good was the Iman Marshall pick which had they traded down into the fifth would have been a fine pick. Also their attempt to creating the next Taysom Hill I think is corny and quite risky considering this has only been successful one other time before.
2. Cincinnati Bengals-B+
Round 1 • Pick 11 (11) • OT Jonah Williams
Round 2 • Pick 20 (52) • TE Drew Sample
Round 3 • Pick 9 (72) • LB Germaine Pratt
Round 4 • Pick 2 (104) • QB Ryan Finley
Round 4 • Pick 23 (125) • DT Renell Wren
Round 4 • Pick 34 (136) • OG Michael Jordan
Round 6 • Pick 9 (182) • RB Trayveon Williams
Round 6 • Pick 38 (210) • LB Deshaun Davis
Round 6 • Pick 39 (211) • RB Rodney Anderson
Round 7 • Pick 9 (223) • CB Jordan Brown
I may be one of the lone people who sees the Bengals draft this successful, one they got a great tackle in Jonah Williams while also picking up a very good tight end who wasn’t productive because of the lack of targets. Germaine Pratt was a very good pick at amazing value, to go along with that picks like Renell Wren, Mike Jordan, Trayveon WIlliams, and most valuable of all Rodney Anderson. The bengals drafted players with tremendous value, some at positions of need others not so much but could lead to trade pieces.
3. Cleveland Browns- B
Round 2 • Pick 14 (46) • CB Greedy Williams
Round 3 • Pick 17 (80) • LB Sione Takitaki
Round 4 • Pick 17 (119) • S Sheldrick Redwine
Round 5 • Pick 17 (155) • LB Mack Wilson
Round 5 • Pick 32 (170) • K Austin Seibert
Round 6 • Pick 17 (189) • T Drew Forbes
Round 7 • Pick 7 (221) • CB Donnie Lewis Jr.
The browns succeeded in taking very good players without having a first round draft pick, in a very comparable position to the Saints the Browns took a possible first round talent at a position of need to better your team. Other than the Greedy pick Sione Takitaki wasn’t a terrible pick and picks of both Sheldrick Redwine and Mack Wilson came of great value.
4. Pittsburgh Steelers- B-
Round 1 • Pick 10 (10) • LB Devin Bush
Round 3 • Pick 2 (66) • WR Diontae Johnson
Round 3 • Pick 20 (83) • CB Justin Layne
Round 4 • Pick 20 (122) • RB Benny Snell Jr.
Round 5 • Pick 3 (141) • TE Zach Gentry
Round 6 • Pick 2 (175) • LB Sutton Smith
Round 6 • Pick 20 (192) • DE Isaiah Buggs
Round 6 • Pick 35 (207) • LB Ulysees Gilbert III
Round 7 • Pick 5 (219) • OT Derwin Gray
Now this hurts me to do because they got one of my favorite players in Devin Bush plus great players in Justin Layne and Benny Snell. However over and over the team made boneheaded decisions, why would the team take Dionte Johnson over Hakeem Butler ir not trade up and get DK Metcalf to fill the receiver need. Isaiah Buggs and Sutton Smith were fine picks but I dislike the other 3 picks I haven’t yet mentioned. The offensive line room needed help at tackle but I don’t know if this was the time also Zach Gentry wasn’t one of my top tight ends there and Ulysees Gilbert could have potential as good depth but right now I don’t understand the pick.
