8 Senior Bowl prospects the Ravens should target in the 2022 NFL Draft
By Justin Fried
8. Ravens draft target: Devonte Wyatt, DT, Georgia
The Ravens are going to need to address their defensive line this offseason, and the goal should be to get younger. One player who could help that cause is Georgia’s Devonte Wyatt.
Wyatt is probably a prospect who should go a lot higher than most are expecting him to. The 6-foot-3, 315-pounder is an exceptional athlete with a sky-high ceiling as a three-technique pass rusher.
While he doesn’t have overwhelming strength, Wyatt has a low center of gravity as well as the agility and explosiveness to disrupt plays in the backfield.
Wyatt could be a target for the Ravens on Day 2 of the draft, assuming he makes it that far.
7. Ravens draft target: Travis Jones, DT, Connecticut
The Ravens won’t just be looking for players who can fill that three-technique role. With Brandon Williams and Justin Ellis set to hit free agency, they’ll likely be in the nose tackle market as well.
Connecticut’s Travis Jones is an intriguing prospect who could fill that need on Day 2 or 3 of the draft. Jones is a powerful run defender who is a fantastic athlete for his size.
Having lost 30 pounds since his freshman year of college, Jones now stands at 6-foot-4, 328 pounds, and offers a lot more pass-rush upside than your typical nose tackles.
Jones has seen his stock rise significantly over the last few weeks and, much like Wyatt, the Ravens probably won’t be able to wait if they want to grab him.
