25. Sheldon Rankins, DT (Louisville)

Sheldon Rankins is a good fit for the Ravens 3-4 front. He had six sacks last season. He also had 58 tackles, showing you how productive of a run stuffer Rankins is. He is 6’2″ 298 pounds, which isn’t ideal size. That being said he has the strength, explosive get off and quickness to be a good defensive tackle.

The Ravens like hardworking defenders. Rankins has a high motor. He is a productive player, his size shouldn’t hurt him in the draft. He has shown that it really isn’t an issue. Rankins has high potential. The Ravens and Rankins would be a good match.
