The Ravens picked Clemson CB Nate Wiggins with the No. 30 pick. Who won and lost on the Ravens’ roster?
The Baltimore Ravens stayed at No. 30 overall in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft on Thursday night. Instead of orchestrating a trade back, they selected cornerback Nate Wiggins out of Clemson.
This decision, along with any other draft pick the team makes, ultimately has some ramifications for current Ravens players, as well as other situations and...

A look into the reasoning behind the Ravens’ pick of CB Nate Wiggins at No. 30.
Entering the draft, cornerback was the second biggest need on the Ravens' list. Outside of Marlon Humphrey, who’s had injury problems that last couple of seasons, and Brandon Stephens, who had a great season last year but is on the last year of his rookie contract, there wasn’t much in the cupboard. Jalyn Armour-Davis and Damarion Williams...
The Ravens have added to their secondary.
The Baltimore Ravens were not interested in trading their pick with Nate Wiggins available at No. 30 overall.
The option to trade down was always on the table for Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta. That is until Clemson cornerback Nate Wiggins was available at No. 30 overall.
It didn’t take long for the Ravens to go from “on the clock” to “the pick is in.” The broadcast feed hardly ticked down 30 seconds before the switch was made.
If that wasn’t convincing...

Predicting every pick for the Baltimore Ravens in the 2024 NFL Draft.
The 2024 NFL Draft is nearly upon us and the Baltimore Ravens are gearing up to add what will need to an impactful rookie class after having so many departures of starters and key depth pieces on both sides of the ball since the new league year began.

We’ve reached the final hours before the 2024 NFL Draft arrives, but the hours before the official beginning of the draft won’t begin until 8 p.m. ET. And when it kicks off, the Ravens, if they remain at No. 30 overall, won’t be on the clock for hours more. So, when will the Ravens make their pick?
Here’s a brief look back in history of...
Gary Cosby Jr.-USA TODAY SportsBaltimore Beatdown staff’s Day 1 predictions for the 2024 NFL Draft:
Considering rumors of an extended run on offensive lineman that could decimate the first round board, perhaps the Ravens will employ their zig-zag strategy to land a tremendous value at another premium position of need with pick 30. Surely mammoth offensive tackles Amarius Mims and Tyler Guyton will generate strong consideration if either are available when the Ravens go on the...

Despite the injuries that have stunted his development, Bateman has flashed high-end potential, especially when it comes to gaining separation. He appeared poised for a breakout 2022 campaign when he registered 226 receiving yards and two touchdowns over the first three games, but he sustained a Week 4 foot injury that led to season-ending surgery....
