2016: Final Mock Draft Monitor

Posted Apr 28, 2016

Draft day is here and the final mocks are in. Here’s a roundup of who the draftniks think the Ravens will select in the first round.


Draft day is here and the final mock drafts are being released.

Here’s a final look at who pundits believe the Ravens will take at pick No. 6 (or elsewhere in the first round).

For a refresher, here’s how the predictions have changed during the pre-draft process: Mock Draft Monitor 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0.

Mike Mayock, NFL Media
Predicted trade back to No. 15
WR Josh Doctson, TCU
Senior; 6-foot-3, 195 pounds; 78 receptions, 1,326 yards, 14 touchdowns
“Projected trade with Titans. The Ravens drafted Breshad Perriman in the first round last year but he never got on the field. Pair Doctson with Perriman and [quarterback Joe] Flacco, and suddenly the Ravens have a different dimension on offense.”

Daniel Jeremiah, NFL Media
Junior; 6-foot-5, 305 pounds
OT Laremy Tunsil, Ole Miss

“Dream scenario for the Ravens. Tunsil is top player in the draft.”

Mel Kiper, ESPN
DE Joey Bosa

Junior; 6-6, 275; 12 games, 35 tackles, 16 tackles for loss, 5 sacks, 1 interception, 1 forced fumble
“If Dallas passes on Bosa, I suspect the Ravens will be thrilled to see him here at No. 6. Mr. McShay thinks he's the best player in the draft, and he'd be a great value here.”

Todd McShay, ESPN
OT Laremy Tunsil, Ole Miss
“This would be a dream scenario for GM Ozzie Newsome and the Ravens, who need a left tackle of the future in the worst way. Tunsil's ceiling is sky high. He has the natural ability to play at a Pro Bowl level for a long time.”

Peter King, MMQB
DE Joey Bosa
Junior; 6-6, 275; 12 games, 35 tackles, 16 tackles for loss, 5 sacks, 1 interception, 1 forced fumble
“The Ravens could be a pivot point for this draft. It’s no secret the Titans would love to come up for a top tackle, and if it’s not Jacksonville, it could be Baltimore. But I think if Tunsil or even Bosa is here, the Ravens will not trade but rather stay and pick one of the two. Bosa would give Baltimore a day-one starter at a major need position.”

Rob Rang, CBS Sports
OT Laremy Tunsil, Ole Miss

“General Manager Ozzie Newsome has made a career out of pouncing on talented players falling into his lap and that could continue with Tunsil, arguably the top player in the draft. The addition of Tunsil would give the Ravens options with incumbent starting left tackle Eugene Monroe, who has struggled with injuries himself since being acquired from Jacksonville.”

Dane Brugler, CBS Sports
OT Laremy Tunsil, Ole Miss

“With Eugene Monroe's injury history, offensive tackle is a need area for the Ravens and the best player in this draft falls in Baltimore's lap, similar to Leonard Williams and the New York Jets in last year's first round.”

Will Brinson, CBS Sports
DE DeForest Buckner, Oregon
Senior; 6-7, 300; 13 games, 83 tackles; 17 tackles for loss, 10.5 sacks, 1 fumble recovery
“With the top two picks locked in, Ozzie Newsome has to be loving his position, guaranteed one of the four blue-chip players in this draft.”

Don Banks, Sports Illustrated
OT Ronnie Stanley, Notre Dame
Senior; 6-foot-6, 315 pounds

Dan Kadar, SB Nation
OT Ronnie Stanley, Notre Dame

“Whether it's Stanley or Tunsil, the Ravens could find a starter on the offensive line with the sixth overall pick.”

Matt Miller, Bleacher Report
OT Laremy Tunsil, Ole Miss

Sam Palazzolo, Pro Football Focus
LB Myles Jack, UCLA

Junior; 6-1, 245; 3 games; 15 tackles, 0 sacks, 1 interception (season ended early by knee injury)
“The QB carousel ensured that the Ravens would have one other elite option from which to choose and they go with Jack over Laremy Tunsil. With LB Daryl Smith moving on, Jack steps in as a three-down option on the Ravens defense, bringing his excellent coverage skills that topped the country with a plus-14.7 grade in 2014. Early 2015 saw Jack take his run defense to a new level, attacking and destroying blockers, before his season-ending injury. We don’t have enough information on Jack’s injury to drop him from the top ten, but that will be a huge factor in whether or not he becomes the next great three-down linebacker.”

Nate Davis, USA Today
DE DeForest Buckner, Oregon

“A perfect fit for a defense trying not to deteriorate. Buckner can close running lanes, get after quarterbacks, tie up blockers so aging edge rushers Terrell Suggs and Elvis Dumervil can get home and, as a last resort, his 6-7, 291-pound frame should get in the way of quite a few passes at the line of scrimmage.”
