4. player. 26. With this pick, I think the Ravens will address their need at cornerback. There are a lot of people who think the Ravens will address this need earlier in the draft, but to be perfectly honest, I think their offseason moves show that they’ll be addressing their other, more urgent needs first. Still, King could be a solid corner and would be a good pick in the third round. He’s got excellent ball skills and is a good kick and punt returner too. He’s a bit small, however, so he may have to be a slot corner, and he also ran a 4.54 40-yard dash, which could raise concerns about his ability to keep up with speed receiver in the NFL. If that’s the case, he may eventually shift to free safety. Still though, he’s a talented corner in a class of very talented corners, and if he falls to the Ravens here (and he very well could), they’d be wise to take him.. CB. Iowa. Desmond King
