2024 NFL mock draft roundup: Ravens adds an edge rusher with 1st round pick

The Ravens are 5-2 and atop the AFC North, but it’s never too early for a look ahead to the 2024 NFL draft.

We recently looked at the mock drafts from around the country, and the consensus has Baltimore reloading on defense, especially in the secondary or at edge rusher.

Jordan Reid has Baltimore restocking at defensive tackle with Justin Madubuike likely landing a monster deal in free agency.

Kris Jenkins, DL, Michigan

Baltimore has a bunch of upcoming free agents on defense, including Justin Madubuike and Michael Pierce along the defensive line. And the Ravens love to draft players in the trenches in the early rounds.

At 6-foot-3 and 305 pounds, Jenkins is an ideal fit in their defense, as he has the versatility to line up at either defensive end spot. He’s a stout run defender and can penetrate into the backfield to disrupt plays. Jenkins is still improving his pass-rush plan, but his explosiveness and active hands give him room to grow.

Team needs: DL, RB, CB
