Well, that didn’t go quite as planned. We knew the Baltimore Ravens were going to have go through the gauntlet to get to the Super Bowl, because whether it was through the Kansas City Chiefs or Buffalo Bills, there’s no easy playoff path in the AFC.
But to have the season fall short yet again when so many things were going right for Lamar Jackson and the Ravens, it’s got to sting. Make no mistake, this team is on the cusp of being special.
There are some silver linings even after the departure of defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald to the Seattle Seahawks, such as Jackson being under contract long-term so there’s no offseason distractions.
Plus, there are plenty of studs rostered like Derrick Henry, Kyle Hamilton, Roquan Smith, and Justin Madubuike.

Ravens NFL Draft Round 1 Mock 2024
- Round 1, Pick 30: Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas
As of March 8, Michael Rochman says:
“Odell Beckham Jr. didn’t make the hoped-for impact when signed last offseason. However, thanks to the high-caliber receiver class, they get a chance to add an impressive outside weapon in Adonai Mitchell, who was a part of Todd Monken’s offense while both were in Georgia."

Ravens Draft Team Needs 2024
Note: The following information was written prior to the 2024 NFL Draft.
1. Offensive Tackle
After signing Derrick Henry, the offensive line should come into focus.
I’d love to see Oklahoma’s Tyler Guyton be available here. He’s a real monster at 6’7" and 300+ pounds, even though his technique needs work. The Ravens have let their offensive line degrade too much and just because Jackson can scramble, doesn’t mean his protection counts for less.
2. Guard
Both penciled-in starting guards aren’t that great and with Henry on board, the team needs to get thicker upfront.
However, there are a couple third round prospects I’m watching in Michigan’s Zak Zinter and Kansas State’s Cooper Beebe.
3. Edge
The Ravens have used early draft picks at the position in recent years with David Ojabo and Odafe Oweh so it’s time to let them play rather than overpaying for mediocre FA vets.
Adding another third- or fourth-round prospect to this rotation would help add some needed depth and competition.
