2018 NFL Draft: Impact on the Ravens defense moving forward

The Baltimore Ravens certainly focused on the offense in the 2018 NFL Draft. Lamar Jackson is expected to be the successor to Joe Flacco. The offensive line got a big addition in Orlando Brown Jr. and the Ravens drafted two tight ends. While the Ravens main priority in this draft was fixing the offense, the Ravens helped their defense as well.

The Ravens ended up drafting three defensive players. They added to their secondary later on in the draft by taking Anthony Averett and DeShone Elliott. Averett is a scrappy cornerback from Alabama while Elliott is a safety with ball skills and toughness.
