2022 NFL Draft: Who Could Be Available When The Ravens Draft At No. 14?

It’s officially NFL Draft season. The NFL Scouting Combine is about a week away. Teams met with players at the East-West Shrine Bowl and Senior Bowl as draft boards around the NFL start taking shape. As for the Ravens, they have the No. 14 pick in the first round, so let’s start thinking about some players the Ravens could draft.

What are the Ravens’ biggest needs?

QB: Stop it!
IOL: Do the Ravens re-sign Bradley Bozeman? What do they really think of Trystan Colon? Could Ben Cleveland take a step forward? I think they need to add to this group.
OT: What about Ronnie Stanley’s health? Is Patrick Mekari locked in at right tackle? Top-three need.
RB: I would love to see the Ravens add another dynamic ball carrier … just not in Round 1.
WR: For the first time in a LONG time, I do not think this is under consideration in Round 1.
TE: The Ravens could add one somewhere, just not in Round 1.
IDL: Will Calais Campbell come back? What about Brandon Williams? They have some depth but could use some more dynamic players.
EDGE: NEEDS MORE WORK. Odafe Oweh was a start. Tyus Bowser was injured late last year. What else do they really have? Top-three need.
LB: The Ravens need more speed and youth. Does Malik Harrison take a step forward? Does L.J. Fort come back? What about Josh Bynes?
CB: YOUTH is needed. Depth is NEEDED. Top-three need.
S: They need to add a playmaker. Chuck Clark is locked in, but then what?

Free agency and maybe a retirement will answer some of these questions, so let’s get to some names to know at No. 14. These are players I think could be available when the Ravens draft. You will not see top-five players on this list.

Here are 19 players (listed by position) I am thinking right now the Ravens could select. I think their top three needs are EDGE, cornerback and offensive tackle, but best player available in Round 1 is usually the Ravens’ way.
