Hosting Underrated 2nd-Team All-SEC Linebacker
The Baltimore Ravens need to upgrade the linebacker position since their depth weakened after losing Malik Harrison to the Pittsburgh Steelers and Chris Board to the New York Giants. John Harbaugh confirmed during the NFL League Meetings that Trenton Simpson will start on early downs. However, since Simpson is a liability in coverage, the Ravens could add a linebacker in the upcoming draft who excels in coverage and plays on obvious passing downs.
Baltimore Ravens hosting underrated 2nd-team All-SEC linebacker
According to Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network, the Ravens are hosting former Georgia Bulldogs linebacker Smael Mondon Jr. for a top-30 visit. Mondon is an underrated prospect who can rush the passer, defend against the run, and cover. Some scouts have him projected as a late Day 2 to early Day 3 selection.

A four-year contributor inside the Georgia defense started 34 games in his career as a former five-star recruit.
Smael Mondon Jr. committed to the Georgia Bulldogs as a five-star recruit for the 2021 season. Mondon had a solid career with Georgia, recording 212 tackles, 18 TFLs, eight sacks, one interception, and five pass deflections in 51 games. His accolades include a second-team All-SEC selection in 2023.
Mondon missed earlier in his junior season with a foot injury, and upon returning, he had a solid finish to the year. He recorded 57 tackles, four TFLs, three sacks, and three pass deflections in ten games. He also posted 15 pressures, 23 stops, three missed tackles, and allowed 74 passing yards (h/t) PFF.
