Full Baltimore Ravens’ 2025 NFL draft order with Jimmy Johnson and Rich Hill trade value charts for fans to help piece together your best trades
The 2025 NFL draft is just hours away, and thanks to Jimmy Johnson, Gil Brandt, and Rich Hill, even the most inexperienced general manager can manage most draft-day trades.
Every team in the NFL has a trade value chart based on the one devised by the former Cowboys head coach and enhanced by Hill. Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta is among the best in the league at moving up and down draft boards. Baltimore will certainly be among the teams utilizing the chart to restock a championship roster.
The details of any trade can be found in the value of the moves, using the NFL’s trade value chart.
What is the ‘trade value chart?
Back when he was the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys and building a dynasty, Jimmy Johnson developed a value chart that assigned every draft pick a specific point value. This made it easier for him and front-office types to compare the relative value of draft picks in different rounds.
A system formulated by personnel guru Gil Brandt and the former Cowboys head coach in the 1990s, the chart helps measure the value of draft assets and helps negotiate trades.
Named the “Dallas Draft Picks Value Chart,” executives from around the league swear by Johnson’s grading system for picks and refer to it before making a final decision on trade proposals or offers.

2025 draft value based off Jimmy Johnson Trade Chart
Jimmy Johnson created the original NFL Draft value chart during his time with the Cowboys in the early 1990s. With the guidance of Gil Brandt, the Cowboys assigned numerical values to each draft pick to evaluate the worth of picks for potential trades.
The draft value trade chart was created by assigning the highest value to the first pick in the draft, which was 3,000 points.
After that, each pick decreased in value, and at its core, Dallas operated with a competitive advantage until the rest of the NFL caught on.

Rich Hill Trade Chart
Because the addition of compensatory picks impacts the value of other selections, Rich Hill (Pats Pulpit) updated the chart in recent years to reflect their trade value.
