NFL Draft Shockers: Which Surprising Team Stole the Show with a Stunning A+ Class in 2026?
There may not be a better marriage of team and player this year than first-round G Vega Ioane, who projects as a prototypical Raven and one who more than stabilizes the middle of a line that lost C Tyler Linderbaum during free agency. Second-round OLB Zion Young also seemed to emanate from central casting Baltimore style to help fortify a front that didn’t get the job done last year for a variety of reasons. Mid-rounders Ja’Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt could push the WRs behind Zay Flowers or might even be de facto stand-ins for departed TE Isaiah Likely, though that’s a loose presumption given the schematic overhaul that’s about to happen here offensively. This is another draft that will be better understood in a year when it becomes apparent whether the Ravens were better off with Ioane and next year’s first-rounder … or Maxx Crosby.
