Steve Palazzolo On How They Grade NFL Drafts
Senior Analyst at Pro Football Focus Steve Palazzolo joined Norris and Davis to review the Ravens draft picks compared to some other picks from around the league.
Palazzolo gave the Ravens a grade of a B+ for the draft, where as teams like the Browns and Bengals A's.
So what was the difference? Was Ronnie Stanley worth a top ten pick? "I wouldn't have taken him in the top ten, but we did have him as a top fifteen type of player in this draft."
The Ravens also snagged Kenneth Dixon and Palazzolo said it was "a steal in the fourth round," but is he a role player or a starter? "We had a second round grade on Dixon, the best receiving running back in the draft. I do think he'll be a good fit for the Ravens, and he's a guy that I thought would maybe go in the second or third round, so I think they got really good value in the fourth," said Palazzolo.
