Could the Baltimore Ravens draft a quarterback to replace Lamar Jackson?
It wouldn't be a surprise if the Baltimore Ravens were to draft a quarterback in the 2023 NFL Draft, especially in the first round to replace Lamar Jackson. It seems that as the days go by, there is a growing sense that Jackson will not be a Raven in 2023.
He requested a trade on March 2, and isn't happy with his situation in Baltimore as he was placed on the non-exclusive franchise tag this offseason.
While answering questions this morning, DeCosta said that it's possible to get a good QB at any point in the draft.
DeCosta: "It's quite possible to get a good QB at any point in the draft."
DeCosta said just based on their board, where they have QBs ranked in the top 32, it's possible they take a first-round QB.
The Ravens currently hold the 22nd overall pick in the draft. With a deep QB class, there could be a few solid quarterbacks available for them to select.
Of those quarterbacks could be Hendon Hooker, Will Levis and possibly Anthony Richardson.
We will have a better idea of their draft plans as we get closer to the draft, which is in three weeks.
Who do you think will play QB for the Ravens in 2023?
