14. Ravens – Derek Stingley Jr., Cornerback, LSU

The Ravens are fortunate in this draft because Stingley is good enough to go much higher than 14. He comes from an LSU program noted for producing outstanding cornerbacks. That should make him a safe bet for a successful career and immediate contribution. While Baltimore already has Marlon Humphrey and Marcus Peters, having depth at cornerback doesn’t hurt. Furthermore, Peters is a free agent at the end of the 2022 season, giving Stingley a year to learn the ropes before being expected to play a significant part on the Baltimore defense.

15. Eagles (From Dolphins) – Jameson Williams, Wide Receiver, Alabama

Last year, the Eagles had success with another former Alabama wide receiver. However, they still require more playmakers to complement Jalen Hurts. Philly appears to be dedicated to giving Hurts a chance to be their long-term starter, so he needs as much aid as possible around him. There’s a good probability Williams will be available at No. 15, making him the obvious choice. He sat behind some outstanding receivers for two years at Ohio State before taking off after transferring to Alabama, piling up over 1,500 yards and 15 touchdowns. He’s a big play waiting to happen and would complement Hurts perfectly.
