We asked, you answered: Ravens fans prefer Styles, not Downs at 14

Fans were asked about their favorite and least favorite players from the following list: Oregon TE Kenyon Sadiq Ohio State LB Sonny Styles Ohio State S Caleb Downs Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love And here’s how they voted: Styles received a whopping 51% of the vote, with Love coming in as a clear second option.

Styles is listed as a linebacker, but as I wrote last week, has the frame and athleticism to factor in as a edge rusher, too. Love does not have the same positional versatility, but in terms of pure football talent, he might be the best player in this draft class. Unsurprisingly, the question about fans’ least favorite option yielded an inverse order: Ravens fans do not want to draft a tight end or safety with the No.

14 pick, and it is hard to blame them. Two of the team’s last five first-round picks have been safeties, and one of them received a $100 million extension last year. A third first-round investment – especially with a higher-than-usual pick slot – would be aggressive for a team that has other needs elsewhere.

They also have plenty of depth on the roster after signing Jaylinn Hawkins during free agency. Tight end is a little different. Baltimore extended Mark Andrews last year but lost Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar in free agency (as well as fullback Patrick Ricard, who often lined up as an inline tight end).
