In this 2026 Baltimore Ravens mock draft, the franchise invests heavily in the line of scrimmage with four of the first five picks. Lamar Jackson gets an offensive playmaker in the first round, with a low-risk, high-reward receiver coming off the board in the sixth round. It’s a solid draft for new coach Jesse Minter, who is looking to return Baltimore to contending at the top of the AFC. The Ravens have four fifth-round picks, so they could be looking to make some moves over the course of draft weekend.
2025 was a disappointment for the Ravens. The team had a slew of injuries that kept them from competing in the AFC, and they ultimately fired John Harbaugh. The AFC North is shaping up to be a difficult division, with each team getting wins in free agency, so the draft is going to be pivotal for the Ravens. 2026 needs to be a bounce-back year, or it is going to face ridicule for its handling of the Maxx Crosby deal and releasing the most successful coach in franchise history.
Baltimore has weaknesses that it needs to address, such as weapons in the passing game and improvements to the interior offensive line. Defensively, the team needs more production from its front four and more depth at corner. This mock draft addresses these things, starting with a prospect that makes an immediate impact on the Ravens’ offense.
