Scouting Report. LB. Patrick Queen. Pick Analysis. LSU. 28. player. 26

The Baltimore Ravens had a fantastic regular season that ended with a disappointing early playoff departure. In one loss, some the Ravens felt that the lack of impact in the passing game from quarterback Lamar Jackson was the downfall.

Defensively, there were flaws in stopping key plays from opposing offenses and consistent playing ability from the linebacker corps. The Ravens miss the reliability and impact from middle linebacker C.J. Mosley, now with the New York Jets.

LSU Tigers middle linebacker Patrick Queen might be the most valuable player on the championship defense. His sudden reliability and leadership are what drove the Tigers to their ability to stop some of the top offenses in the nation.

The Ravens can use his playmaking abilities immediately for when the Ravens meet up with the Titans and Chiefs and their elite offenses in future NFL playoff games.

The Ravens could also get another defensive tackle this far into the draft.
