Lloyd Cushenberry – LSU
Cushenberry is another player, like Ruiz, who spent the bulk of his time in college playing the pivot role of the center. However, many believe that Cushenberry might be better suited to playing at guard with the flexibility to slide back to center if needed. That flexibility is something Baltimore has typically loved from their offensive linemen and could make Cushenberry a little more attractive to the Ravens.
Cushenberry is coming off a season that saw the LSU Tigers put on an offensive clinic week in and week out on their way to a National Championship. The Tigers’ offensive line won the Joe Moore Award for the most outstanding offensive line in college football in 2019, led by Cushenberry who played the most snaps among the group.
While Cushenberry could work his way into the first round, not being a ready-made guard would make teams like the Ravens think long and hard about taking him that early. But if he sticks into the second round, Cushenberry could be a great option for Baltimore.
