Here is a 2022 NFL draft pick-by-pick breakdown for the Baltimore Ravens :
Round 1 (No. 14 overall) - Kyle Hamilton, S, Notre Dame: He can shore up deficiencies at the second and/or third levels. Hamilton can provide coverage, a box presence, blitzing ability and an intimidation factor – and easily toggles between every level of the field based on the versatility he displayed for the Irish. He and newly signed Marcus Williams give Baltimore a sweet new safety combo in a division that will mean constant matchups with Cincy QB Joe Burrow and Cleveland's Deshaun Watson . Many draft observers rated Hamilton as a top-five talent who was undercut by the general positional value of safeties. Draft tracker
Round 1 (25) - Tyler Linderbaum, C, Iowa: After a bit of maneuvering, Baltimore adds last season's Rimington Trophy winner to their offensive line. Though knocked for his short arms, Linderbaum is a plus athlete that might remind some of Eagles center Jason Kelce . Draft tracker
Round 2 (45) - David Ojabo, LB/DE, Michigan: Despite the Achilles tear he suffered at his pro day , his upside is too much to pass up . Ojabo follows Mike Macdonald, the Wolverines defensive coordinator in 2021, back to Baltimore, where he'll play for Jim Harbaugh's brother, John. And a redshirt year would likely benefit Ojabo anyway given he made one tackle as a sophomore in 2020. A native of Nigeria who grew up in Scotland, Ojabo (6-4, 250 pounds) exploded for 11 sacks last season and will eventually bring needed juice to Baltimore's pass rush. Draft tracker
Round 3 (76) - Travis Jones, DT, Connecticut: Coming off his career with the Huskies, when he posted 8½ sacks and 19 TFLs in three seasons, Jones was a standout at the Senior Bowl before the 6-4, 325-pounder tested well at the combine – highlighted by a 4.9-second 40. He'll inject some youth into a D-line still anchored by Calais Campbell . Draft tracker

Round 4 (119) - Jalyn Armour-Davis, CB, Alabama
Round 4 (128, from Cardinals) - Charlie Kolar, TE, Iowa State
Round 4 (130, from Bills) - Jordan Stout, P, Penn State
