With the recent news that Eric DeCosta will become the Baltimore Ravens new General Manager officially on Friday January 11, 2019, the 2019 NFL Draft has become one of the most important drafts for the Ravens in quite some time. DeCosta needs to set the tone for the franchise moving forward, and the window to win a championship is wide open right now thanks to Lamar Jackson’s rookie contract.
Following the team’s tragic wildcard loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, the Ravens own the 22nd overall pick for the 2019 NFL Draft. In a class that lacks elite, top-level talent, it’ll be vital that DeCosta and the scouting department do extensive research on these players.
