Daniel Jeremiah’s final mock draft gave the Ravens two big swings on Thursday night, starting with Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq at No. 14 and ending with Clemson defensive tackle Peter Woods at No. 32 after a trade with the Seattle Seahawks.
Jeremiah did not leave the board there. He also said he could see Baltimore trading down from No. 14 or staying put for Penn State interior lineman Olaivavega Ioane, while projecting Ioane to the Los Angeles Chargers at No. 22. In the same mock, he sent Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson to the Washington Commanders at No. 7.
The most aggressive part of Jeremiah’s Ravens read was the move back into the first round. He wrote that Baltimore would have to worry about the Raiders or another team taking Woods early in the second round if it waited until No. 45, so the Ravens would use draft capital to climb back up for a player they liked. Jeremiah said Woods would give them insurance while Nnamdi Madubuike works his way back from neck surgery.
That would mark a notable draft pattern for Baltimore. The last time the Ravens made two first-round picks was 2022, when they took Kyle Hamilton at No. 14 and then used the pick acquired from the Arizona Cardinals in the Marquise Brown trade to land Tyler Linderbaum. The last time they traded back into the first round for another swing was 2018, when the move brought Lamar Jackson to the franchise.
Jeremiah’s mock also showed how unsettled the Ravens’ first-round possibilities remain. He wrote that he could see them trading down or taking Ioane at No. 14, and he mocked Baltimore to a player at another spot who would have fit a different team’s need if he slid. That kind of spread reflects the wider draft debate around Baltimore, where most mock drafts still have the Ravens taking Ioane, but some others point to Utah’s Spencer Fano, Sadiq or an edge rusher instead.
Field Yates offered a different direction, projecting Miami edge rusher Rueben Bain Jr. to Baltimore at No. 14. Yates wrote that the Ravens’ 30 sacks in 2025 were their second fewest in the team’s 30-year history, a number that underlined why pass rush keeps showing up in mock drafts for Baltimore. He also noted Bain’s 30⅞-inch arm length and said the fit represented a blend of need and value.
Cornerback has not been the loudest Ravens need in the mock-draft chatter, but Jamison Hensley pointed to LSU corner Mansoor Delane as a name to watch if he slips. Hensley wrote that Delane could slide out of the top 10 if teams choose to upgrade in the trenches and draft offensive linemen, and said Baltimore likely would jump at the chance to grab him if he were there at No. 14. He added that cornerback is an underrated need for the Ravens because Marlon Humphrey turns 32.
What stands out on a night like this is not just the names Jeremiah attached to Baltimore, but how many different answers the Ravens can plausibly chase in one round. Tight end, interior line, pass rush, cornerback — the board keeps giving them options, and Jeremiah’s mock showed that the safest forecast may be that Baltimore is prepared to move if the player it wants starts to disappear.
