The Baltimore Ravens are set to make 11 picks in the 2025 NFL draft, starting with the No. 27 overall selection on Day 1. With a defense-heavy approach, the team is prioritizing edge rusher and defensive line needs. Backup cornerback Chidobe Awuzie is the only notable defensive signing this offseason.
Despite finishing second in sacks last season, the Ravens are expected to focus on edge rushers due to the impending free agency of Kyle Van Noy and Odafe Oweh’s upcoming contract situation. The team also faces a significant void after nose tackle Michael Pierce retired and Brent Urban remains unsigned.
With Ar’Darius Washington as their only projected starter in the secondary, the Ravens may look to upgrade the safety position. This draft could be crucial for addressing these defense needs and shaping the team’s future strategy.
