Ravens are named one of the ideal landing spots for Kenyon Sadiq

They note that Lamar Jackson “enters the 2026 NFL season lacking key offensive weapons,” while also suggesting Andrews may be nearing the latter stages of his career. Whether that timeline is entirely fair or not, the larger point stands—Baltimore needs reinforcements.

"Baltimore Ravens fans keep replaying the heartbreaking end to last season in Pittsburgh. However, the missed field goal that kept the Ravens from the AFC North division crown wasn’t the primary reason Baltimore missed the playoffs last season. The Ravens could select their next star tight end in Sadiq in the draft."

The argument makes sense that the Ravens have their needs: interior offensive and defensive line help, wide receiver, and another edge rusher. It also certainly stands to reason this team needs depth (and youth) at tight end.

Widely viewed as one of the most talented prospects in this class (and maybe the best TE available), Sadiq offers the kind of versatility that has historically thrived in Baltimore's system. He can stretch the field, win in contested situations, and provide another reliable option in the red zone. That's something this offense has leaned on heavily in the past.

The question is how early the Ravens are willing to act. They've never been afraid to invest in tight ends. Doing so again soon would signal a clear shift toward future-proofing the offense around Lamar Jackson. It would also reinforce a simple truth. What once looked like a position of strength now feels like one that can’t be ignored. If Kenyon Sadiq is on the board when the Ravens are on the clock, passing on him might not just be difficult. It may take the availability of a solid option to make Baltimore choose another prospect.
