After selecting Georgia safety Malaki Starks in the first round, the Ravens now look to build in other key areas on their roster, including EDGE, defensive line and offensive line. With the No. 59 and No. 91 pick, all expectations are the Ravens go in that direction with at least one of said picks.<\/p>\n<p id=\"Y32a9g\">Below are more than a dozen mock drafts around the internet on who the experts, pundits and analysts predict the Ravens will take with their Day 2 selections.<\/p>\n<hr id=\"2fNOKL\" class=\"p-entry-hr\" \/>\n<h3 id=\"U0U7Yj\"><strong>Baltimore Beatdown\u2019s<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Zach Canter<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"Euvjwq\">No. 59: DT Omarr Normal-Lott, Tennessee<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"5PHU6m\">Norman-Lott makes his hay as a pass-rusher, and a very proven one at that. He has a couple of very effective moves combined with dynamite for hands and exceptional quickness for his size. He can both bull-rush with the power in his hands or go around interior linemen with speed and bend that\u2019s excellent for his size. He finished with 9.5 sacks in his last two seasons in college despite small snap count numbers due to Tennessee\u2019s rotation at their line. His run defense is a projection simply because of limited snaps, but it\u2019s easy to see him as a gap shooter, and he did have tremendous success in college.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"KLDjhE\">No. 91: OT Wyatt Milum, West Virginia<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"r57MDM\"><strong>The Athletic\u2019s<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Nick Baumgardner<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"fYG15w\">No. 59: EDGE Jordan Burch, Oregon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"Xkq5jB\">\u201cThe Ravens hit the jackpot at the end of Round 1 with Malaki Starks, a perfect fit for their roster. Burch, a versatile edge who can play inside, would be another.\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"cvxYzL\">No. 91: OL Marcus Mbow, Purdue<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"L22krg\"><strong>CBS Sports\u2019<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Chris Trapasso<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"piZwhD\">No. 59: EDGE Bradyn Swinson,\u00a0LSU<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"cBgg2r\">\u201cThe Ravens could use more outside pass rush, and Swinson had a tremendous 2024 at LSU. He comes with plus traits, too.\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"jyHgli\">No. 91: CB Quincy Riley, Louisville<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"5BQHpS\"><strong>Sports Illustrated\u2019s<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Daniel Flick<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"Bz03Cl\">No. 59: DT Darius Alexander, Toledo<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"Ac6X5m\">\u201cAlexander is big, long and powerful, which translates well to the physical nature of the AFC North.\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"n4qWzZ\">No. 91: EDGE Ashton Gillotte, Louisville<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"TnQNJc\"><strong>ESPN\u2019s<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Matt Miller<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"w93qbs\">No. 59: CB Shavon Revel Jr., East Carolina<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"3oOhTH\">\u201cThe Ravens can double down in the secondary and grab a 6-foot-3 cornerback who has first-round tape but fell due to an\u00a0ACL injury\u00a0in September. Revel has speed, length and ball skills but didn\u2019t get to prove himself against elite competition \u2014 which is likely why he\u2019s on the board here.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"NBXJle\"><strong>USA Today\u2019s<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Ayrton Ostly<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"dCCXMX\">No. 59: EDGE Oluwafemi Oladejo, UCLA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"oJZH5J\">\u201cBaltimore got great value in Round 1 by picking Malaki Starks and continue to invest in defense in Round 2. Oladejo follows a familiar format to what Baltimore\u2019s done at the position for years. He\u2019s inexperienced at edge but offers a great frame and athleticism to grow into a good starter.\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"TUEvI4\">No. 91: DT Ty Robinson, Nebraska<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"c07jVu\"><strong>Sporting News\u2019<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Vinnie Iyer<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"hFQMjE\">No. 59: Benjamin Morrison,\u00a0Notre Dame<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"CderB1\">\u201cMorrison is a technically sound playmaker. The Ravens can steal him as a potential starter down the road, adding to the terrific pick of first-round safety Malaki Starks.\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"45mv1D\">No. 91: OT Charles Grant, William &amp; Mary<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"NtnYWx\">\u201cThe Ravens will like his developmental upside given his size, hands, and feet, making Grant an ideal swing backup after their offseason re-signing of Ronnie Stanley.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"Wn2qLU\"><strong>PFF<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Staff<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"IuGTPx\">No. 59: CB Azareye\u2019h Thomas,\u00a0Florida State<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"DFu7LE\">\u201cThomas is a long, quick-footed press-man cornerback who showcases good natural movement skills and playmaker instincts. He lacks some strength in a few areas, but he plays the position with high intelligence to be a scheme-versatile CB2 projection for the NFL.\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"nbHMb5\">No. 91: EDGE David Walker, Central Arkansas<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"U1F1eC\">\u201cWalker is a highly productive and decorated FCS player. His size limitations will make him a Day 3 pick at best, but he mitigates it as best he can and is a high-effort player who lives in backfields. Some team will likely take a flier on him late as a stand-up pass-rush specialist.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"af4Wld\"><strong>NFL.com\u2019s<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Eric Edholm<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"1axgv2\">No. 59: OT Alreontae Ersery, Minnesota<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"McB1Fy\">\u201cA Ravens-y tackle prospect with great size. Baltimore needs to think short and long term about the O-line, and Ersery could be tried at guard early.\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"z1KXQ3\">No. 91: EDGE Oluwafemi Oladejo, UCLA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"0N2emE\"><strong>NBC Sports\u2019<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Eric Froton<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"TsIzBX\">No. 59: OL Jared Wilson, Georgia<\/li>\n<li id=\"mA3LIs\">No. 59: EDGE David Walker, Central Arkansas<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"gUqFwC\"><strong>DraftWire\u2019s<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Jeff Risdon<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"rxgQZI\">No. 59: EDGE J.T.
