Nate Solder

Cameron Heyward, DE/DT, Ohio State

Brian Baldinger vehemently stated that the Ravens will not pass on Cameron Heyward if he's available.

[CleveSteve]

A) Knowing that they have to replace Gaither who's relationship with the team is over, and seeing that all the 1st-round talent corners are gone, the Ravens take Nate Solder, allowing them to move Michael Oher back to the right side where he thrived as a rookie. This upgrades two positions for them at once.

B) Despite desperate needs at OT and CB, Baltimore sees no players they like at either position, and instead decides to upgrade their pass rush on the left side with scheme-diverse Cameron Heyward, choosing to address their other needs when value matches their selection.
