19. Baltimore Ravens: Charles Cross, OT, Mississippi State
The Baltimore Ravens haven’t been the same team in 2021 that we saw the previous couple of seasons. Of course, the whole vibe around the team could be different had they beaten the Packers and Steelers on their two-point plays that ultimately cost them the game, but that wouldn’t mean they still had no issues — because they do.
Their main issue is easy to see as Baltimore’s offensive line has been less than impressive this season. They can address that here with the addition of Charles Cross, who feels like a steal this late. He should be a day one starter and will solidify the edge, helping Lamar Jackson play better than he has this year — and perhaps stay healthier than he has.

20. Buffalo Bills: Roger McCreary, CB, Auburn
The injury to Tre’Davious White highlights just how bad the cornerback play in Buffalo is outside of him. The Bills hope to address that here with the selection of Roger McCreary from Auburn who would be a welcome addition across from White.
He would also help them navigate the early part of 2022 should White not be at 100 percent by the time the regular season kicks off.
Listed at 6-foo0t and 190-pounds, McCreary has played against some of the best wideouts in the SEC and has been a ball hawk with six picks and 30 pass defenses in the past three seasons.
