Third round – No. 92
DL Raekwon Davis, Alabama
Baltimore’s defensive line is really only tasked with holding up the offensive line so the linebackers and pass rushers can do their jobs to make the big plays. But that doesn’t mean they couldn’t do more and it would be nice to see more players added to the unit who can generate some pass rush as well.
By adding Davis in the third round, the Ravens would get a versatile defensive lineman who is big enough and can grow roots in the run game but is agile enough to knife upfield and generate pressure from either inside or the end.
The Ravens didn’t keep a lot of defensive linemen on their roster this season before having to go grab a few in the middle of the season. With Michael Pierce among the pending free agents and Brandon Williams a potential cap casualty after the 2020 season, this gives Baltimore some immediate help and insurance for the future.
