That is my guess, he showed promise in limited action last season. He fits the mold; maulers in the middle. That and the centers in this draft were largely not very good. They did well thus far, a few head scratches but the more I ruminate on it, the rb makes sense. While he is inexperienced, learning behind Henry and his time at wr, he is a decent, on paper, replacement for Mitchel.. The two wode outs means there will be quite rhe battle in the receivers room, Bateman or Tez may be on their way out.... They got a guy to set the edge and with some coaching, may turn out to be a very good pass rusher. In the mean time, he shares snaps with Green, allowing Hendricks, also good against the run, to stay on the field for 3 downs. Slot corner, good depth. I would like a big phatty, but maybe they have their eye on one who goes undrafted. An athletic tight end with very good ball skills. All in all, add in what should be a starting guard great at pass protection, I would say a successful draft without seeing the 6th & 7th round picks

So between Serratt, Lane and Tez, they have completed reshaping the wide receiver room, 3 big bodies, one of them lightning, one fast and one a great slot guy with tremendous hands

Adam Randle, rb, Clemson, odd Randall permanently made the switch from wide receiver to the backfield in 2025. He is a long strider with an upright running style, moving downhill with aggression. When he keeps a low center of gravity, he can be hard to bring down at the point of contact. Of course, Randall's experience as a receiver makes him a very good threat as a pass catcher out of the backfield. Though he is still developing his skills as a running back, he possesses upside with his physical tools. -- Scouts Inc.

Another tight end, Josh Cuervas? Oy

Hibner high lights https://youtu.be/RicZYG28Eyw?si=rmDDtxrtcysk4LpR

3 picks in the 5th round, really expected them to use one or two to trade up in earlier rounds.. We shall see where they go here, still need a phatty and a center for depth if anything

Per Espn Hibner tested well at the combine, and he is a natural route runner with fluidity. At the top of his routes, he has quickness to get out and separate. He also uses his speed to put stress on linebackers who try to play tight coverage vertically. Hibner has shown the ability to make a difficult catch and pick up some chunk yards after. He displays good field awareness and awareness along the boundary. Hibner is aggressive when engaging as a run blocker, using good pad level and strength at the point of attack. He is also effective timing blocks at the second level or in space. Hibner profiles as a versatile tight end who can line up in different spots and be a downfield option in the passing game. -- Scouts Inc.

Ravens trade up in the 4th to 133, take Mathew Hibner, SMU, tight end? REALLY?

Now go get Zxavian Harris, dt ole miss, 6'-8, 330 pds

Sarratt is a Raven! Now that 3rd round pick makes even little sense
-
Looks like a run on defensive tackles is starting

Well, this team has a long history of drafting big receivers who never pan out. Clarence Moore, one of my favs, just never could play in games the way he did in practice. Just as one example. One of the old members here, the late great socdolager & I got to interview him one summer. As for Lane, he and a couple of the new wr coaches have a connection, so my guess is that is why him.
-
Wow, big body, decent speed, great hands, but he struggles with press man. Quite a reach it seems. Young is Brent Urban part 2, with a little more upside. Very good against the run, something this team has lacked on the edge for some time. Yes, a rotational guy who I am sure Minter will move around the line.

Zion Young, edge, Missouri Nice

Texans got McDonald.. Ouch

Most have the Ravens taking McCoy, Tennessee corner. Likely the best corner in the draft, not just the best left. However, he blew his knee out, which has teams worried about his future, yeah, Max Crosby type worry. Safety is not needed, Ravens have plenty and they can always find one later or even undrafted to groom. Center is an option, but, none of them is starter material, maybe a year or two away if at all. So why chose one in either rounds 2 or 3? Defensive tackle yes, edge, maybe even middle backer, but definitely wide receiver, there are several who are good enough to start in these next 2 rounds
-
If Kaydwn McDaniel, big phatty, is there in the 2nd, I hope they grab him. Cashius Howard, edge, is another good 2nd round pick In the 3rd, I think it no secret I want them to get Serratt, or Bernard, for the tough big body wide out with great hands and run after the catch

So what draft position will the Ravens be in? 14th pick

The way McVay spoke last night/this morning, Stafford is playing for the fore seeable future -

Wow, Rams took Simpson, what a surprise, even to their coaches who were; "not amused". While he is in a great system to help him succeed, and has a good mentor in Stafford, they way over drafted him. -

Hopefully this psu player will turn out. Nice move, between he and Jones, one of them might be a good right tackle for when Stanley retires and the move over is made.. -

I'm not saying speed cant get open, just that in short yardage such the redzone, quickness kills more -

Given the organization's inability to find/develope recievers, one that has come along you hang onto. Bateman has success in the redzone because of Flowers and the tight ends. Quickness is more needed in the redzone than speed.
