[News] 2017: Ravens Mock Draft Monitor 4.0

[ByTheBay]

Tony Romo just retired. That should move a QB up the board allowing us to have more options at 16.

I don't think it'll move a QB up as the team's considering him puck after the Ravens.

I think you could be right. Really hoping Corey Davis falls into our lap somehow

Anything can happen on draft day. There are always trades and picks that no one saw coming. For instance, the Texans could feel compelled to trade up for a QB if they get paranoid and think someone else may grab their guy first.

Ravens will probably get a shot at one of the 3rd players in position -
Reddick- Humphry - Ross respectively,
but should have a shot at the top LT Ramczyk or 2nd RB Dalvin Cook.

This will be a tough decision for the Ravens with those 5 players left on the board all look to have great talent, however which one is going to break out in the NFL? (I don't particularly pick Charlton at a #16.)

I might take Dalvin Cook RB or Ramczyk LT - I think the question might be who do they really like at 2,3, 3 and 4.
- If they have their sites on a OL in the later rounds we may see them pass on Ramczyk.
- they may see Cook as another Dixon and not see the value.
- Does Riddick fit the Raven pass rush mold ?
- Is Ross tough enough, he seems fragile
- Humphry looks hot and cold, can he stay consistent

it sure would make it easier if one of the top 12 were to slip ( considering 2 QB and TE should go in 15)

Williams, Davis, Foster or Barnette would be highly coveted.at 13-16. I think any one of them would be a shoe-in at 16 for the Ravens

 

So I looked at a mock today and the majority of the guys you have listed as "highly coveted" (which would also be on my highly coveted list) are predicted to be there.  Since this is the first mock Ive looked at this year, I don't know how realistic or unrealistic it is, but there are some guys that I thought were going to be gone early that fell totally out of the first round.   Bleacher report isn't really known for their in depth analysis of anything really, but without looking at other mocks the two picks that seem really out of place are the Colts taking the guard from Western Kentucky at 15 and the Cards picking up Mahomes at 13.  The case with Mahomes is more likely.  QBs usually start to climb up draft boards as the draft nears.  Is this mock an outlier or have other mocks predicted similar things?
