Baltimore Ravens ‘Perfect’ NFL Draft Pick Revealed: ‘Shouldn’t Move That Way’

Baltimore’s offense is now a potent combination of brute force, thanks to Henry, and explosive finesse given Jackson’s mobility and Zay Flowers‘ speed that can take the top off a defense on the perimeter.

During the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft, the Ravens could prioritize fortifying the offensive line in front of Jackson and Henry early on, in order to unlock the offense’s full potential.

Baltimore Ravens’ Perfect NFL Draft Fit Revealed

While the offensive tackle class is led by Notre Dame’s Joe Alt and Penn State’s Olu Fashanu, Tyler Guyton has exploded up draft boards following a strong showing during the NFL Senior Bowl and NFL Combine.

Bleacher Report’s Ryan Fowler believes Guyton is a perfect fit for the Ravens in the first round.

“One of the supremely gifted movers in the class,” Fowler writes for B/R. “Tyler Guyton would be a great add for the Baltimore Ravens late on Day 1.

“Offensive linemen shouldn’t move the way he does at 6’8″, 322 pounds, and projecting him inside a Ravens offense that will remain versatile in its approach both through the air and on the ground should be intriguing for GM Eric DeCosta.”

DeCosta has built a career around melding value to need, and selecting Guyton would add a talented and athletically gifted offensive tackle to upgrade a pressing need at a key position for the Ravens.

Tyler Guyton Scouting Report

Guyton has the athleticism to contribute immediately, but could also be a project with significant upside as a future anchor of the offensive line.

As Pro Football Focus points out, Guyton allowed only two sacks during 27 games at the University of Oklahoma, not allowing a sack in 2023.

“From strictly a tools perspective,” Senior Bowl Executive Director Jim Nagy told me recently for a profile written for Heavy. “You could make a good case Tyler’s the highest ceiling tackle in this draft.

“Tyler just does things athletically these other guys can’t do. He’s so light on his feet it just looks like he’s floating sometimes. Even though he’s played right tackle in college, he’s a high-level left tackle athlete.”
