Ravens Ring of Honor
This mock begins with a trade: The Ravens trade back to 25 with Philadelphia and receive their fourth round pick in return. (pick 127). Philadelphia is after Josh Jacobs and wishes to get ahead of Oakland in order to draft him. ( Besides we managed a move from 22 to 25 last year).
Ravens first round selection: Center - ELGTON JENKINS - Mississippi State
It was really difficult for me not to go LJ Collier here but ultimately, we absolutely need to invest this year in supporting Lamar Jackson. We cannot go into his third year, still in need of a center. Absolutely immovable pass set and anchor. Moves guys off the ball in the run game. Has position flex as well.
Ravens third round selection: Guard - Beau Benzschawel - Wisconsin
This isn't overboard in the least, taking back to back interior Oline, If you don't believe me, please watch this guy....Two plays in and you won't be able to stop. Awesome run blocker. Cannot be swayed by stunts, twists or late rushes. Great football intellect. I havent watched anyone that comes off combo to 2nd level with better timing. definitely a mean streak.
Ravens third round selection (compensatory) EDGE - JOE JACKSON - MIAMI
A little bit of Z. Smith to his game but nowhere near as stiff. Already a very good run defender with incredible non stop work.
Ravens round four selection: OLB - JUSTIN HOLLINS - OREGON
high football IQ. does most everything well with upside as a rusher. a knack for creating turnovers. Might fill out a little. already a talented edge setter and run defender with good athleticism upfield and inside counters.
moved around a lot. man coverage, drops OLB, some ILB. good football player.
Ravens (2nd) fourth round selection - WR - JAKOBI MEYERS - NC STATE
Big (mostly) slot receiver. fearless over the middle...great catch radius, capable of the spectatculr catch. Underutilized in college but always came up big when called upon. sudden out of breaks. has shown ability to get deep and win one on one 50/50. Tough,
Ravens 4th round selection (from Eagles) WR - KEELAN DOSS - UC DAVIS
very good hands, exceptional uncovering against zone coverage. also shows ability to high point. very good possession style receiver that puts me in the mind of Keenan Allen.
Ravens fifth round selection - DTACKLE DEMARCUS CHRISTMAS FLORIDA STATE
Two gap run stuffer.
Ravens 6th round selection - G - TERRONE PRESCOD
a bit of a project so far as pass pro...could be a year away but could also be special. I think he is the best drive you off the ball interior player in this draft. period.
Imagine the interior a year from now with these three rookies! Presscod, Jenkins, Benzschawel
Ravens next sixth round selection. RB TY JOHNSON MARYLAND
hits the hole and can go.
