Welcome into The Lounge, presented by Draft Kings. I'm Ryan Mink, here with Garrett Downing,

and today is the day, Garrett, when we reveal our seven-round Ravens mock drafts. Look,

there's two things in my life that cause me the most mental anguish. That's the stock market. Number one. Number two is my seven-round mock draft. Okay. Hammin and Hawn. Tweaking last night at one o'clock in the morning. I'm just ready to be done with this. You just need to get to Thursday night so that you can put everything to rest and move on. You're done with it.

Well, once we tape this, it's ironclad. And I think I went 11 for 11, so let's not make any bones without that. Yeah, but just so, and listeners, long-time listeners, long-time viewers of the show will know that Mink is famous for it. He's going to do this like six different times today. He's going to give you a guy

and then give you six, seven, eight more guys that could also be the pick. And then if one of those

eight happens to be selected at any point by the Ravens, then he'll say, half point. I told you.

It's a half point. I told you. And makes also not immune to changing his picks after the podcast is done. Once it's, once it's recorded, it's ironclad. Okay, okay. That's good. All right. This is the final point. Yes, that's absolutely going to happen. Yes. I'm going to throw out a number of names. Yeah. But these ones are ones that, you know, we have a little point system, right? We get a point if we hit it, if we get the player at the spot. Yeah. It's like a half point if you predict the player, not at the spot that he was taken by the Ravens. And we've all, we've had our hits and misses. I had Malachi Stark's last year. That was your big, time to fame. That was a big hit for me. You had a later pick. You had Carson Vincent.

Yes.

Which was a nice hit. I mean, that's like anybody can get the first round pick, but if you're getting a small school guy on day three. That was a nice hit. That was a nice hit. So usually we don't like both strike out. Yeah. Usually we hit something. So the other thing I would say too, like in all honesty, we don't have any inside info on this.

Eric Tocost in the front office here.

Don't tell us anything related to what they expect to do in the draft. So no inside info here. This is the time of the year where you even, if you even see a scout or you see Eric, you just. I don't want to hear any of the conversation. I don't want to know anything Yeah. And also, this is us predicting what we think the Ravens are going to do, not necessarily what we would do, but a prediction of how this draft is going to play out. So with all that at the top, let's go ahead and kick it off with the 14th overall pick in the first round. And this is no trades. Sorry. Last thing. No trade. Any other rules you want to throw out there? No trades.

So the Ravens have 11 picks. We're sticking and picking at all 11 spots. So I'll give you first dibs here right off the bat. Who do you have the Ravens taking at 14? This one's going to be a shocker. Okay, big time. Right out of the gates. Big surprising pick. I'm taking Vanga Yoane.

The chalk pick.

The most popular pick.

And look, it was a similar

story last year with Malachi Starks. He was the most popular mock draft pick for the Ravens. I went

with him. It just made too much sense, right? He checked too many boxes for the Ravens. And I think

that Yonai does the same thing. Obviously, you have a need,

the interior offensive line. That was the Ravens biggest problem last year. The Ravens have been

very clear that they want to fix that this offseason and go into next season, giving Lamar Jackson

more protection. Yonne is just, he's a mauling prospect.

He can also move.
