In a Tuesday, March 10, piece for SI, Mark Morales-Smith names projected landing spots for the top college players entering the 2026 NFL draft. For the Baltimore Ravens, he sees them taking offensive guard Olaivavega Ioane of Penn State.

Hendrickson isn't a relief pitcher, but the Ravens view him as a closer. He brings many qualities the Ravens want, including a history of excelling in the fourth quarter, getting sacks and quarterback pressures with the game on the line.

New Ravens head coach Jesse Minter emphasizes the critical role of offensive and defensive lines for championship contention.

One advantage Minter has is the presence of an elite quarterback, Lamar Jackson, who is a two-time NFL MVP. He has passed for 22,608 yards, thrown 187 touchdown passes, and recorded 56 interceptions. In addition, he has rushed for 6,522 yards and scored 35 touchdowns.
