26. . Edge Rusher. Baltimore Ravens. Kwity Paye. 19. player

This is where the Washington Football Team would originally pick, but in this mock draft, they trade back instead. The scenario makes sense. With Ojulari coming off the board at No. 18, the Ravens might sense a run on edge rushers coming. Thus, they trade up to get their preferred player.

The baseline value here for the 19th pick is Baltimore’s No. 27 pick and their second-rounder in 2022. If you’re greedy and want more, feel free to imagine more beyond that. As for Paye, he could ultimately be worth the trade-up for the Ravens. Baltimore desperately needs help on the edge, and Paye has the explosiveness, cornering ability, and compact, powerful build to make it happen.
