5 Ravens that could be included in a draft-night trade

Yahoo Sports

After months of waiting, the Baltimore Ravens have begun off-season workouts under first-year head coach Jesse Minter, and now look towards Thursday night's NFL draft following significant roster losses. Eric DeCosta regrouped from the backed-out Maxx Crosby trade and m ade a splash signing, landing Trey Hendrickson on a four-year deal. Teams that successfully build through the NFL draft typically suffer the greatest losses.

Changes in personnel spark offseason and training camp roster battles, and the Ravens will take part in several high-profile competitions. As the draft nears, the Ravens could explore trade options involving key players. Here are five potential candidates Baltimore might include in draft-night deals.

RB Justice Hill A key figure in Lamar Jackson's offensive success, Hill (neck) missed seven games and only rushed 18 times for 93 yards and two touchdowns while catching 21 of 27 targets for 169 yards and one touchdown during 10 appearances in 2025. Hill also had seven kickoff returns for 188 yards. Hill won the backup running back job over Keaton Mitchell and Rasheen Ali for the top change-of-pace role behind Derrick Henry, but he didn't play after Week 12 due to a neck injury.

WR Rashod Bateman Bateman is under contract through 2029 and has been the subject of trade talks following an injury-filled 2025 season. DE Broderick Washington A key piece of Baltimore's defensive front for the past six seasons, Washington has four tackles and one start this season before being placed on Injured Reserve after ankle surgery. Releasing Washington with a post-June 1 designation would save the Ravens $4,010,000, with $1,850,000 in dead salary cap space.

OLB Adisa Isaac The 24-year-old Isaac has had his first two seasons cut short by injury, playing in just four of 36 possible games. OL Andrew Vorhees Vorhees ranked sixth in the NFL's Performance-Based Pay program, earning an additional $1. 199 million based on playing time relative to salary.
