Ravens Draft: Jalen Ramsey V. Myles Jack

We’ve talked extensively about both prospects. We know what we would get with Jack, we know what Ramsey can do too. Jack is a spark plug at the linebacker position and he runs better than possibly any linebacker in football. Ramsey is a versatile defensive back that could be a great safety or cornerback. There are two ways of looking at this.

If the Ravens draft for need, Ramsey would be the best pick. The Ravens secondary has been problematic in the past few seasons. The Ravens cornerback position looks to be the biggest need. The Ravens made a huge signing in Eric Weddle, but the strong safety can only do so much without a good duo of cornerbacks.
The Ravens could still draft Jack though, and they could justify it as well. Ray Lewis meant so much to the Ravens. If they think Jack is the next Lewis, it would be hard to pass him up. If they think he is that good of a football player, they probably have him as the best player available.
The Ravens have always been a team that rigidly drafts the best player available. The problem here is that you can argue for either player being the best player in the entire draft. It all boils down to the Ravens preference.
