There’s some subtle symbolism behind these digits. Peebles taking over No. 93—a number worn by six-time Pro Bowler Calais Campbell—is a quiet challenge in itself. Buchanan stepping into Malik Harrison’s former 40 hints at his potential inside linebacker/special teams role. And Vinson getting 71 puts him squarely in the Ravens’ tackle development pipeline.

Noteboom, a third-round pick in 2018, brings seven years of NFL experience and 35 career starts to Charm City. While injuries have limited his availability at times, his versatility is undeniable. He’s played both guard and tackle over his career and even stepped in as a full-time starter when needed. That flexibility should immediately fill the void left by Josh Jones and Patrick Mekari, two of the Ravens’ most trusted and versatile linemen in recent years.

Michael Pierce may not have been a household name outside Baltimore, but Ravens fans know exactly how important he was to this franchise. Undrafted out of Samford, Pierce clawed his way onto the roster, carved out a role, and became one of the most dependable run-stuffers in football. His retirement leaves a massive void... literally—not just on the field, but in the culture of Baltimore’s defensive front. The Ravens have long prided themselves on finding hidden gems where others aren’t looking.

After a quietly dominant three seasons anchoring the interior, Jones is due for a payday in 2026—and if his growth continues, it might be one the Ravens can’t afford. Baltimore already made its financial priorities clear: Kyle Hamilton and Tyler Linderbaum are the cornerstones, and both are due massive extensions. That’s what happens when you draft well.

It’s hard to nail the NFL Draft. It’s even harder to do it consistently. But when a front office does manage to pull it off, the results are usually impossible to miss. The best classes don’t just fill roster holes, they help define a team’s identity for years. That’s why it raised some eyebrows when Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox published a list of the seven best draft hauls from the past five years, and the Baltimore Ravens’ 2022 class was nowhere to be found. Not even an honorable mention.
