Pick Analysis. OLB. 851. Scouting Report. Texas. JosephOssai. 27. player

Ossai would be a great selection for the Ravens. He honestly looks a lot like a young Terrell Suggs. He has a very similar build too, at 6’3″ and 245-lbs.

Joseph Ossai can come in and immediately contribute to the Ravens defense. Not only can he line up as a 3-4 outside linebacker in coverage, but he can also put his hand in the dirt on a 4-man front. He has enough versatility to fit right in with the type of defensive schemes that the Ravens run.

The Ravens re-signed Tyus Bowser and Pernell McPhee, but they didn’t bring in a new pass rusher to make up for losing both Matt Judon and Yannick Ngakoue. Maybe they still will. But whether they do or don’t, this is a pick worth considering for sure.

Next. Joseph Ossai would be perfect for the Baltimore Ravens. dark

There are many options for the Ravens to improve on either side of the ball. It all depends on how free agency and the rest of the offseason plays out up until the 2021 NFL Draft.
