Baltimore Ravens 2026 NFL Draft Preview
· Yahoo Sports
The 2025 Baltimore Ravens were one kick away from sneaking into the postseason by winning the scrappy AFC North. However, it’s probably better that their effort looped wide right as time expired.
Baltimore has a litany of issues. On offense, they’re massively one-dimensional, usually being held together by the magic of Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry. On the defensive side, it’s a unit that can’t get the passer (31st in sack%), and as a result, is decimated on the back end (3rd-most PYPG allowed).

Key Draft Targets for Ravens:
Olaivavega Ioane– G –Penn State
As previously mentioned, the Ravens offense was extremely dependent on the magic of their all-world QB and RB, and a ton of that came down to the struggles of their offensive line -particularly their guard play.
Olaivavega Ioane is the consensus best guard in the draft, and at pick No. 14, this seems like a no-brainer for Baltimore.

Chris Brazzell – WR – Tennessee
If this name sounds familiar, it should – especially to residents of Athens, GA. Chris Brazzell serves as an explosive new target for Jackson to aim at, and he’s already been mocked to Baltimore by several draft experts.
If the Ravens get the chance at pick No. 45, they cannot pass up on him.
Malik Muhammad – CB – Texas
Muhammad spent four years at Texas, shutting down the best in college football. That serves perfectly for a team that was near the worst at the back end last season, and pick No. 87 aligns perfectly with the Longhorn’s projected third-round value.
