2019 NFL Mock Draft: Cowboys turn the page, Raiders find pass rushers
By Randy Gurzi
20. Baltimore Ravens: Anthony Johnson, WR, Buffalo
This offseason, the Baltimore Ravens did a good job of correcting their offensive issues at receiver and tight end. Bringing in three new wideouts and two tight ends have given the roster more offensive abilities — whereas in the past they were truly inept at pass catching.
Michael Crabtree and Willie Snead signed multi-year deals and the two tight ends are rookies in Hayden Hurst and Mark Andrews. All seem capable and should stay for a while. John Brown also seems to have some upside but signed just a one-year deal, so they could decide to go cheaper at the third receiver position.
They can do this, while also grooming a potential No. 1, by selecting Buffalo’s Anthony Johnson. He won’t get the hype that others do because of the level of competition he faces in the MAC, but Johnson has been a beast for them and could thrive in an offense with a gunslinger like Joe Flacco.
Of course, that depends on how long Flacco holds off their 2018 first-round pick, Lamar Jackson. Early returns on this season make it seem like it could be a year or more that he holds him off though because Flacco has looked better with his new receiving corps.
