Ravens NFL Draft: Washington EDGE Bralen Trice A Perfect Fit?
Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports

The Baltimore Ravens don't have a first-round selection until No. 30 in this April's NFL Draft. That's the result of a spectacular regular season in 2023.

But thankfully, the Ravens are quite proficient at finding gems in the draft, whether it's in the early rounds or a little later.

Washington's Bralen Trice has been one of the best pass rushers in college football in recent seasons. Per Pro Football Focus, he finished fourth with 106 career pressures. He's said to be relentless in his pass rushing, and that could be a perfect addition to he Baltimore defense.

"The Ravens led the league in sacks during the regular season, but their top three pass-rushers—Justin Madubuike, Jadeveon Clowney and Kyle Van Noy—are all impending free agents," Bleacher Report said. "With the way things look right now, Baltimore spending a first-round pick at a premium position to try and maintain the amount of pressure the Ravens were able to generate last season makes a ton of sense. Plus, Trice is the physical presence they seem to prefer among their front seven."

Baltimore will have to make a decision on Madubuike this season as he enters free agency. One option is to use the franchise tag on the former Aggie until a long-term deal can be reached. Or he could leave the team in free agency, leaving a hole in the Ravens roster. Trice could make a nice addition to the Ravens' offensive line that might be losing some defensive pieces.
