Ravens Add Linebacker Malik Harrison At No. 98
The Baltimore Ravens selected linebacker Malik Harrison out of Ohio State with the 98th overall pick in the third round. Harrison is a player with a high IQ and good tackling abilities, but his athleticism could be underwhelming at his position. The Ohio State product finished with 75 tackles and 4.5 sacks in 15 games […]
Ravens Add More Speed With Devin Duvernay
The Baltimore Ravens have selected Texas wide receiver Devin Duvernay with the No. 92 pick during the third round. He's a rare quick slot man with strong, reliable hands. Duvernay hauled in 106 receptions for 1,386 receiving yards and nine touchdowns during his 2019 season. It'll be interesting to see where he falls into the […]
Ravens Bolster Defensive Line With Justin Madubuike
The Baltimore Ravens used the 71st pick in the NFL Draft to add to their already strong defensive line by picking Texas A&M defensive tackle Justin Madubuike. He is a high-motor player who should add to a Ravens defensive front that already allowed the fourth-fewest rushing yards last season. At 6-foot-3, 293 pounds, he is […]
Mark Ingram II Has New Backfield Partner In J.K. Dobbins
The Baltimore Ravens selected Ohio State running back J.K. Dobbins with the No. 55 overall pick in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft on Friday. Dobbins excels in all areas as a running back and runs with a low center of gravity at 5-foot-10, 209 pounds. He's not an elusive back but uses […]

Ravens Select Patrick Queen At No. 28 Overall
The Baltimore Ravens selected LSU linebacker Patrick Queen with the No. 28 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday. Queen has game-changing playmaking ability, and he did that in the biggest games during his college career. The Ravens certainly needed linebacker help after losing C.J. Mosley last year and Patrick Onwuasor in free […]
Ravens Could Draft A Receiver Early
The Baltimore Ravens were one of the teams that made a run at wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins before the Texans traded him to the Cardinals, according to multiple sources. As such, it won't be a big surprise if Baltimore drafts a receiver in the first round on Thursday night. The Ravens don't pick until No. […]

2020 NFL Draft - Top 100 Big Board and Undervalued Prospects To Watch

Tight End Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis
