The Baltimore Ravens finally have a good receiving corps. It’s something fans can say for the first time in eight years since Anquan Bolding and Torrey Smith suited up in purple. That’s thanks to Baltimore investing their draft capital in the position over the last two years.
Marquise Brown, Willie Snead and Miles Boykin are integral parts of what makes the Ravens’ offense hum. But with a prolific wide receiver class in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Ravens will undoubtedly look to expand upon the group and could potentially find their true No. 1 receiver if they grab one early enough.
Let’s take a look at the best wide receiver for the Ravens in each of the seven rounds of the 2020 NFL Draft.
1st Round: WR Jerry Jeudy, Alabama
You knew it had to be Jeudy, right? The combination of speed and crisp route running would make an excellent weapon for offensive mastermind Greg Roman. Jeudy fits the mold of a prototypical starting wideout, although his frame could benefit from the addition of more muscle.
Jeudy has 65-plus receptions in each of the last two seasons at Alabama and could be a valued target of reigning MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson, who produced 36 passing touchdowns last season. Jeudy will likely be the first receiver off the board, so the only way the Ravens would acquire him would be to trade up.
