Top 3 UDFA candidates to make Baltimore Ravens roster
1. Baltimore Ravens have to be intrigued with Jaylon Thomas
Jaylon Thomas is an intriguing UDFA that the Baltimore Ravens signed from SMU. He is a five-year starter for the Mustangs, and the most significant thing going for him is that experience. He not only has the experience, he has it in five different positions. That is significant.
He played right tackle as a freshman, mostly as a reserve, but then moved to left tackle as a full-time starter in his second and third years. He moved from left tackle to left guard a bit in 2021, and then in 2022 he ended up playing all five positions.
Thomas finished with 2,234 snaps at left tackle, 398 snaps at left guard, 88 snaps at center, 186 snaps at right guard, and 662 snaps at right tackle.
If you know the Baltimore Ravens, you know they love this. Patrick Mekari was the Baltimore Ravens' backup center until he became their backup left tackle. The Ravens love to find that type of player, and he always becomes valuable due to his skill set.
