Baltimore Ravens 7-Round 2022 Mock Draft: Defense, Trenches Aplenty
Round 4, 138th Overall: Zonovan Knight, RB, North Carolina State
The hope is that the running back room remains healthy for the Baltimore Ravens in 2022, but there are questions behind Dobbins and Edwards. Once again, that word “depth” is important. The Ravens take advantage and find a role player in what looks like a deep class for one.
Zonovan Knight is an impressive runner with solid vision, but what stands out is the home run ability once he gets into space. That alone makes him intriguing, but he also moves well laterally and can be a bruiser between the tackles. He also offers value as a returner.
Round 4, 140th Overall: Brock Hoffman, OL, Virginia Tech
A lot hinges on whether or not Bradley Bozeman returns, but this Ravens mock draft can’t assume his return is imminent. The center class took a hit with Jarrett Patterson and Ricky Stromberg returning, but day three has some gems. Brock Hoffman is one of them.
Hoffman is a big, strong center with the size that will fit the Ravens trends at the position. He’s got good hand placement in pass protection, and while his pad level could use some work, the floor traits are there. Hoffman has the initial quicks and reach skills to thrive in the run game as well, and there are instances of him tossing defenders on tape.
Round 6, 194th Overall: Grant Calcaterra, TE, SMU
The finish to this Ravens mock draft features adding more to the tight end room. Grant Calcaterra is a very good receiving tight end with impressive routes, movement skills, and reliable hands. He’d be a great add to a room that Jackson likes to utilize a lot.
