In the NFL Draft The Baltimore Ravens have seven picks. It all starts tonight. Here is a look at the picks that Ozzie Newsome and company come into the draft with. We’re also look at three possible prospects for each pick.
Round 1: Pick 16
3 Possible Options at Pick 16
- Corey Davis WR (WMU) Corey Davis is the best receiver I have seen come out of the draft. I think he is going to be special with a side of amazing. By now, you know how I feel about Davis.
- Reuben Foster LB (Alabama) The Ravens may not need an inside linebacker desperately but Foster would be hard to pass up. Foster is a top 10 talent who could drop to the Ravens. The Ravens always go with their best player available and Foster would likely be just that.
- Forrest Lamp OG (WKU) Forrest Lamp is one of the best offensive linemen in the draft class. He could be the next Marshall Yanda and that’s why he’s on the list.

Round 2: Pick 47
3 Possible Options At Pick 47
- Tyus Bowser OLB (Houston) Bowser is a do it all outside linebacker with incredible strength and explosive ability. He would give Matt Judon a run for his money in the competition to start opposite of Terrell Suggs.
- JuJu Smith Schuster WR (USC) Smith-Schuster is one of my favorite players in this draft. He’s just a play-maker at the wide receiver position. He’s a blend of Torrey Smith and Anquan Boldin in my opinion.
- Tim Williams OLB (Alabama) Williams is a really good pass rusher off the edge. He could be a situational pass rusher and if so he could rack up the sacks.

Round 3: Pick 74 and 78
3 Possible Options for Picks 74-78
- Duke Riley LB (LSU) Riley is a linebacker with speed and quickness. He is a little undersized but he can roam from sideline to sideline and make things happen.
- Antonio Garcia OT (Troy) Garcia’s stock has risen a lot. He could be there in the third round and if he is, the Ravens will find a perfect replacement for Rick Wagner.
- Ethan Pocic C (LSU): Right tackle isn’t the only need for the Ravens on the offensive line. Pocic is a viable option to replace Jeremy Zuttah immediately.
Round 4: Pick 122
3 Possible Options At Pick 122
- Chad Kelly QB (Ole Miss) Chad Kelly is the most underrated player in this entire draft class. There are things to worry about but he has talent. He could be the steal of the draft if he goes to the right team.
- Marlon Mack RB (USF) Mack has a lot of speed and he is hard to catch in the open field. He is a lot like Kenneth Dixon and I don’t think the Ravens are content at the position.
- Isaac Asiata OG (Utah) Asiata is a great run blocker who plays consistently. There may be no tougher player in this draft.

Round 5: Pick 159
3 Possible Options At Pick 159
- K.D. Cannon WR (Baylor) Cannon is a speedy but undersized receiver with upside. He’s worth a shot in the fifth round.
- Ben Gedeon (Michigan) This is a linebacker with a good 6’2″ frame and the ability to make tackles consistently. He comes from a great Michigan defense.
- Julie’n Davenport OT (Bucknell) A freakishly big 6’7″ 318 pound tackle prospect. He is raw but he has the measurables you look for.

Round 6: Pick 186
3 Possible Options At Pick 186
- Josh Dobbs QB (Tennessee) Dobbs has great athletic ability and he was fun to watch at Tennessee. He is a project but he has plenty of potential.
- Brendan Langley CB (Lamar) Langley is a really athletic cornerback with decent size. He has potential but he isn’t a finished product coming into the league.
- Rodney Adams WR (USF) Adams is a speedy wide receiver who could outperform his draft stock in the NFL. He is a bit of a project but in the sixth round he’s a steal.
