Baltimore had 11 draft picks for the second straight year, and reloaded a Super Bowl-caliber roster with versatility, game-wrecking attitude, and plenty of elite talent to add to Jesse Minter's first 90-man roster ahead of training camp.

Over his final two seasons in Happy Valley, Ioane didn't allow a single sack and drew zero holding penalties.

Young, a transfer from Michigan State, started all 13 games at the JACK position last season. He recorded a total of 23 tackles, including 9 solo tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss (TFL), and a team-high 9.0 sacks, along with one interception. His average of 0.69 sacks per game ranked him 19th nationally and fourth in the SEC. According to Pro Football Focus, he was the 34th-ranked pass rusher in the nation with a grade of 80.9, and He ranked 13th nationally among all edge players in Pass Rush Productivity (PRP) with a score of 10.5, which is calculated using a formula that combines sacks, hits, and hurries relative to the number of times he rushes the passer. PFF credited him with 37 quarterback hurries and nine quarterback hits. Young was also named to the Second Team All-SEC by league coaches.

Lane finished his three-year USC career with 99 receptions for 1,363 yards and 18 touchdowns. In 11 games last season, Lane had 49 receptions for 745 yards and four scores. For Baltimore, this pick represents another step toward surrounding its offense with more dynamic weapons, giving OC Declan Doyle flexibility in how it deploys his passing attack moving forward.

The Baltimore Ravens continued to build out their receiving corps on Day 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft, selecting Elijah Sarratt with the No. 115 overall pick in the fourth round. Sarratt arrives as a productive and reliable possession target, coming off a strong 2025 season at Indiana, where he totaled 65 receptions for 830 yards and 15 touchdowns, showcasing his ability to finish plays and score for the National Champion Hoosiers.

Sarratt is a hard worker and followed head coach Curt Cignetti to Indiana from James Madison.

Hibner appeared in all 13 games and started in 12. He achieved a career-high with 31 receptions and posted a career-best 436 receiving yards, which ranks as the fifth most by a tight end in the ACC. He recorded four receiving touchdowns and had four games with at least four receptions. Notably, he had a season-high of five catches on two occasions. Hibner finished the season with his highest receiving yards in a game, totaling 87 yards and a touchdown at Cal on November 29. He also set the Trust & Will Holiday Bowl record for the longest reception, with an impressive 80-yard catch on January 2.**Awards:**- Preseason: Mackey Award Watch List, Campbell Trophy Watch List- In-Season: Campbell Trophy Semifinalist (September 24)- Postseason: All-ACC Honorable Mention- Selected to play in the American Bowl- Selected to play in the Panini Senior Bowl.

Rivers is a two-time All-ACC honoree, earning a first-team selection in 2024 and a second-team selection in 2025. He helped Duke achieve a program record 35 wins over four seasons, with four bowl game appearances: the 2022 Military Bowl, the 2023 76 Birmingham Bowl, the 2024 TaxSlayer Gator Bowl, and the 2025 Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl.

Cuevas brings experience from a major program at Alabama, where he developed as a reliable option in both the passing game and as a blocker. His ability to contribute in multiple roles fits the Ravens' preference for tight ends who can line up in different spots and create matchup challenges. Cuevas secured the starting position as the No. 1 tight end during his senior year, starting 11 out of 12 games. Unfortunately, he missed the final two regular-season games and the SEC Championship due to injury. Throughout the season, he recorded 37 receptions for 411 yards and four touchdowns. Additionally, he contributed with a seven-yard rush and made one tackle. Cuevas was also selected for the Mackey Award Watch List, which honors the nation's top tight end.

Despite battling injuries, including a torn ACL and a broken hand, Randall wrapped up his Clemson career with 787 receiving yards, 858 rushing yards, and 15 total touchdowns, becoming a permanent team captain.

At Clemson, Randall showcased his dual-threat ability, becoming just the fourth player in program history to record at least 750 rushing yards and 750 passing yards. His ability to contribute in multiple ways — whether as a runner, passer, or gadget option — adds another layer to an already creative offensive scheme.

Eckley arrives from Michigan State with a strong leg and the ability to control field position, traits that are critical in Baltimore's emphasis on special teams. His consistency and hang time give him an immediate chance to compete, especially in a system that values precision and situational awareness. In 2025, Eckley was named a second-team All-American by the AFCA (American Football Coaches Association) and ESPN. He also earned third-team AP All-American honors. Eckley became the second Spartan to be recognized as the Big Ten Eddleman-Fields Punter of the Year and received consensus first-team All-Big Ten accolades from the league’s coaches and media. Additionally, he was honored as a first-team All-Big Ten player by USA Today and the AP. Eckley led the FBS with an impressive punting average of 48.5 yards, which ranks as the second-best single-season average in Michigan State University history.

The 6-3, 298-pound Benny played several different positions at Michigan under former Ravens defensive coordinator Wink Martindale.

A well-traveled college athlete, Beernsten spent six seasons at South Dakota State before spending his final college year at Northwestern. The 25-year-old spent most of his time at right guard and offers the potential to slide to center.
