The 2025 NFL Draft order is officially set as all 32 teams key in on the offseason.
The NFL Combine is just two weeks away and the Ravens will be busy with a projected 11 picks in this year's draft. Here's who pundits have Baltimore taking at No. 27, with a couple slating them to move back as well:
S Malaki Starks, Georgia
2024 stats: 14 games, 77 tackles, 4 tackles for loss, 1 interception
"The Ravens' defense found its way by the end of the season, but the secondary gave up far too many big plays -- 58 completions for 20-plus yards this past season, third worst in the NFL. I'm watching the safety spot this offseason -- Marcus Williams was benched for much of the season and probably will be released this spring. Starks is versatile, has excellent ball skills and would pair nicely with Kyle Hamilton. He has six career interceptions."
OT Josh Conerly Jr., Oregon
2024 stats: 14 games, 83.5 pass block grade (Pro Football Focus), 72.5 run block grade, 1.9% pressure rate allowed
Chad Reuter, NFL Network (No. 32 overall in proposed trade with Eagles)
"Baltimore trades down in the first round and finds a bargain. Veterans Ronnie Stanley and Patrick Mekari are due to become free agents, so the team must add a starting left tackle."
"Josh Conerly Jr. is a bit of a project, but he's got all the tools to develop into a future Pro Bowler. His high-end athleticism would be a weapon on the move in the run game leading out for Derrick Henry or Lamar Jackson."
"Returning Ronnie Stanley might be too rich of a proposition for the famously discerning Ravens, so Lamar Jackson might need a new blindside protector in short order. Conerly ended up on the wrong end of a viral clip of a one-on-one rep with the aforementioned Green at Senior Bowl practice, but he was still recognized as his team's best offensive lineman."
OT Kelvin Banks Jr., Texas
2024 stats: 15 games, 89.8 pass block grade, 81.0 run block grade, 1.9% pressure rate allowed
"Banks has a ton of experience (42 college starts) and forecasts to fit best in a system that values his athleticism. Some have the Texas product as the top tackle in the 2025 class. But my models say the landing spot will be critical when it comes to Banks realizing his potential at the next level."
EDGE James Pearce Jr., Tennessee
2024 stats: 13 games, 7.5 sacks, 13 tackles for loss, 38 tackles
Nick Baumgardner, The Athletic
"This feels very low for a player with Pearce's twitch, burst and bend off the corner — he recorded more than 100 combined pressures over his two years as a starter at Tennessee, with a 23 percent win rate last season. But he's just 243 pounds and exactly the type of uber-talented player who's going to need a specific team fit."
Jeff Zrebiec, The Athletic
"The Ravens, who are always going to lean best player available early in the draft, could go in many different directions here. They could bolster their offensive or defensive line. They look at first-round corners every year. However, they clearly need an edge rusher with Kyle Van Noy turning 34 next month. Plus, Van Noy, Odafe Oweh and David Ojabo are all heading into the final years of their deal. The Ravens haven't had a ton of success in recent years finding high-impact edge rushers in the middle rounds, so it makes sense to strike early. Pearce, who had 17 1/2 sacks over his final two seasons at Tennessee, is the type of long and athletic edge rusher the Ravens covet. He's 245 pounds, so his ability to hold up against the run will be scrutinized. But he plays with great power and effort and has double-digit-sack potential at the next level."
CB Shavon Revel Jr., East Carolina
2024 stats: 3 games, 8 tackles, 2 passes defended, 2 interceptions
C.J. Doon, Baltimore Sun (No. 34 overall in proposed trade with Giants)
"With Brandon Stephens entering free agency coming off a disappointing season, the Ravens are likely to be in the market for a new starting cornerback. They get a relative discount here in Revel, who was expected to become a first-round pick before he tore his ACL in September. Assuming good health, the 6-foot-2, 200-pound Revel has the size, speed and physicality to form an enviable young duo on the outside alongside 2024 first-round pick Nate Wiggins while veteran Marlon Humphrey continues to man the slot. The Ravens would be taking a risk considering the lingering questions about Revel's knee, but it could pay off handsomely given what the 22-year-old has shown on tape when healthy."
EDGE Mike Green, Marshall
2024 stats: 13 games, 17 sacks, 23 tackles for loss, 84 tackles
"Baltimore adds another pass rusher to the mix with Marshall's Mike Green. He is part of the plan to eventually replace Kyle Van Noy."
