OT Daniel Faalele to Ravens (4th round)

The Baltimore Ravens are consistently good when it comes to the NFL draft. They are patient and they just wait for good players to fall to them and it usually works.

While there were a ton of teams that did impressive work in the 2022 NFL draft, you would be hard-pressed to find a team that accomplished as much as Baltimore without the resources of a top-10 pick coming into the first round.

Not only did the Ravens draft Kyle Hamilton, one of the top defenders in the draft, but Baltimore continued to add value throughout the draft and one of the best picks is going to end up being Minnesota offensive tackle Daniel Faalele.

Offensive line picks aren’t sexy but you can find some really good ones on day three but in this instance, the Ravens drafted a guy who should have been long gone.

Faalele is an absolute monster at 6-foot-8, 384 pounds and the comparisons to former Raven Orlando Brown make perfect sense. Faalele was a first-team All-Big Ten selection last season at right tackle and just started playing football around 2017.

His upside is huge and the Ravens’ love for really big football players will payoff again.
