Those who wanted the Ravens to draft a wide receiver Day 1 got their wish. The Ravens selected Minnesota s playmaking wide receiver Rashod Bateman with the 27th pick in the 2021 draft.
Bateman is the fifth wide receiver Baltimore has drafted over the past three years and it s the second time in three years that General Manager has used his top pick on a wideout, joining Marquise Hollywood Brown.
Known for his route-running and making tough catches in traffic, Bateman also has breakaway speed and is a threat to turn even short throws into long gains. Another weapon for quarterback Lamar Jackson is about to arrive.
