The Baltimore Ravens are often movers and shakers come draft day, and the 2020 NFL Draft is no different. Entering Day 2 holding eight more picks, the Ravens are moving back from the No. 60 pick into the third round.
Baltimore is trading its No. 60 and No. 129 picks to the New England Patriots. In exchange, the Ravens are getting picks No. 71 (third round) and 98 (third round), according to ESPN’s Field Yates and Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer.
There is a ton of depth at a number of key positions of need for Baltimore in the middle rounds. By moving back, the Ravens will likely find a player they still have rated highly on their draft board while getting even more chances at picking up immediate contributors. It could also be a case where all the guys they really liked in the second round are gone and they’d rather take a few more shots in the third round to pick up more important needs.
