### **Positions to Watch**
The Ravens' top needs include interior offensive line, edge rusher, cornerback, wide receiver, and defensive line.
Baltimore's guard play was inconsistent last season, and if Linderbaum departs in free agency, the interior offensive line will undergo even more change. [Penn State guard Vega Ioane](https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/ravens-mock-draft-pre-nfl-combine-offseason-predictions) is the most popular choice for the Ravens at No. 14 heading into the Combine.
Defensively, the Ravens fell from 54 sacks in 2024 to 30 in 2025, their lowest sack total since 2010. This draft is loaded with talented edge rushers, and at least eight could be selected in Round 1.
Even if the Ravens trade for a veteran pass rusher or sign one in free agency, it may not preclude them from drafting an edge player. Top quarterbacks the Ravens are scheduled to face in 2026 include Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, , Justin Herbert, Dak Prescott, and Trevor Lawrence. A rookie who strengthens Baltimore's pass rush would be a valuable addition.
Wide receiver is also a deep position at this year's Combine, and the Ravens may draft a playmaker to give Lamar Jackson and first-year Offensive Coordinator Declan Doyle more options. [Jordyn Tyson of Arizona State](https://www.nfl.com/news/daniel-jeremiah-2026-nfl-mock-draft-2-0) is one wide receiver at the Combine that Baltimore is being linked to. Tyson's brother, Jaylon, is a versatile NBA guard/forward for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
