The 2017 NFL draft will commence in 31 short days. Below is a viable three-round mock draft that would give the Baltimore Ravens an elite pass defense next season and fill their greatest needs on offense with quality players:
1. Browns: Myles Garrett, OLB, Texas A&M
2. 49ers: Jamal Adams, SS, Louisiana State
3. Bears: Solomon Thomas, DE, Stanford
4. Jaguars: Leonard Fournette, RB, Louisiana State
5. Titans: Mike Williams, WR, Clemson
6. Jets: DeShaun Watson, QB, Clemson
7. Chargers: Mailk Hooker, FS, Ohio State
8. Panthers: Derek Barnett, DE, Tennessee
9. Bengals: Reuben Foster, MLB, Alabama
10. Bills: Marshon Lattimore, CB, Ohio State
11. Saints: Vidauntae Charlton, DE, Michigan
12. Browns: O.J. Howard, TE, Alabama
13. Cardinals: Jonathan Allen, DE, Alabama
14. Eagles: Gareon Conley, CB, Ohio State
15. Colts: Malik McDowell, DT, Michigan State
16. Ravens: Charles Harris, OLB, Missouri
Ozzie lands a coveted pass rusher. Harris posted nine sacks as an All-SEC selection last season and 30.5 tackles for a loss over his last two seasons. He excels at timing the snap, has a strong motor with the speed to get around the edge and a terrific spin move. Harris would rotate with Terrell Suggs, Matt Judon and Za’Darius Smith to provide the Ravens with the pass rushing juice they desperately need to earn a postseason bid.
17. Redskins: Dalvin Cook, RB, Florida State
18. Titans: Marlon Humphrey, CB, Alabama
19. Buccaneers: Corey Davis, WR, Western Michigan
20. Broncos: Ryan Ramczyk, LT, Wisconsin
21. Lions: John Ross, WR, Washington
22. Dolphins: Takkarist McKinley, OLB, UCLA
23. Giants: Cam Robinson, RT, Alabama
24. Raiders: Adoree’ Jackson, CB, Southern California
25. Texans: Mitchell Turbisky, QB, North Carolina
26. Seahawks: Jordan Willis, DE, Kansas State
27. Chiefs: Haason Reddick, ILB, Temple
28. Cowboys: Jabrill Peppers, SS, Michigan
29. Packers: Christian McCaffrey, RB, Stanford
30. Steelers: Carl Lawson, OLB, Auburn
31. Falcons: Forrest Lamp, OG, Western Kentucky

33. Browns: Quincy Wilson, CB, Florida
34. 49ers: Patrick Mahomes, QB, Texas Tech
35. Jaguars: David Njoku, TE, Miami

43. Eagles: Alvin Kamara, RB, Tennessee
44. Bills: Taylor Moton, RT, Western Michigan
45. Cardinals: Fabian Moreau, CB, UCLA
46. Colts: Curtis Samuel, RB, Ohio State
47. Ravens: Cordrea Tankersley, CB, Clemson
Tankersley is a tough and willing tackler, which is a prerequisite for all Ravens cornerbacks. He brings ideal length, plays with physicality and understands how to position himself using leverage. These traits made Cordrea a perfect backup to Jimmy Smith at boundary cornerback and provide a succession plan for the opposite side once Brandon Carr moves on.
48. Vikings: Zach Cunningham, OLB, Vanderbilt
49. Redskins: T.J. Watt, OLB, Wisconsin
50. Buccaneers: Jalen Tabor, CB, Florida
51. Broncos: Gerald Everett, TE, South Alabama
52. Browns: DeShone Kizer, QB, Notre Dame
53. Lions: Jarrad Davis, OLB, Florida
54. Dolphins: Dion Dawkins, OG, Temple
55. Giants: Josh Jones, FS, NC State

57. Texans: Tim Williams, OLB, Alabama
58. Seahawks: Kevin King, CB, Washington
59. Chiefs: JuJu Smith-Schuster, WR, Southern California
60. Cowboys: Montravious Adams, DT, Auburn
61. Packers: Dan Feeney, OG, Indiana
62. Steelers: Ahkello Witherspoon, CB, Colorado
63. Falcons: Justin Evans, SS, Texas A&M
64. Patriots: Demarcus Walker, DE, Florida State

65. Browns: Marcus Maye, FS, Florida
66. 49ers: Zay Jones, WR, East Carolina
67. Bears: Davis Webb, QB, California
68. Jaguars: Carlos Watkins, DT, Clemson
69. Rams: Chris Godwin, WR, Penn State
70. Jets: Joe Mixon, RB, Oklahoma
71. Chargers: Tyus Bowser, OLB, Houston
72. Panthers: Samaje Perine, RB, Oklahoma
73. Bengals: Dede Westbrook, WR, Oklahoma
74. Eagles: Larry Ogunjobi, DT, NC Charlotte
75. Bills: ArDarius Stewart, WR, Alabama
76. Saints: Rod Johnson, LT, Florida State
77. Cardinals: Ethan Pocic, C, Louisiana State
78. Colts: Elijah Qualls, NT, Washington
79. Vikings: Antonio Garcia, LT, Troy
80. Ravens: Dorian Johnson, OG, Pittsburgh
Johnson has all the skills to develop into a Pro Bowler if he can improve his footwork and add more bulk. He has a nasty on-field disposition, strong punch and good quickness for the position. Dorian is proficient at making blocks on the second level and fits the Ravens scheme flawlessly. The Ravens could pencil him in at left guard and kick Alex Lewis out to right tackle, solidifying their line.
81. Redskins: Dalvin Tomlinson, NT, Alabama
82. Broncos: Pat Elflein, C, Ohio State
83. Titans: Adam Shaheen, TE, Ashland
84. Buccaneers: Alex Anzalone, OLB, Florida
85. Lions: Rasul Douglas, CB, West Virginia
86. Vikings: Cooper Kupp, WR, Eastern Washington
87. Giants: Bucky Hodges, TE, Virginia Tech
88. Raiders: D’Onta Foreman, RB, Texas
89. Texans: Desmond King, FS, Iowa
90. Seahawks: Zach Banner, RT, Southern California
91. Chiefs: Cameron Sutton, CB, Tennessee
92. Cowboys: Sidney Jones, CB, Washington
93. Packers: Anthony Walker, ILB, Northwestern
94. Steelers: Jake Butt, TE, Michigan
95. Falcons: Daeshon Hall, DE, Texas A&M
96. Patriots: Ryan Anderson, OLB, Alabama
97. Dolphins: Tanoh Kpassagnon, DE, Villanova
98. Panthers: Taywan Taylor, WR, Western Kentucky
99. Ravens: Amara Darboh, WR, Michigan
Darboh has excellent size, speed and the mentality to thrive as a possession receiver. He is a smart player and capable blocker with strong hands and some after the catch ability. He scored a dozen touchdowns and gained over 1,500 yards over his final two collegiate seasons. Darboh does his best work on slants and in the red zone. He would complement Mike Wallace and Breshad Perriman exceptionally well.
100. Titans: Chad Hansen, WR, California
101. Broncos: Tedric Thompson, FS, Colorado
102. Seahawks: George Kittle, TE, Iowa
103. Patriots: Chris Wormley, DT, Michigan
104. Chiefs: Nazair Jones, DE, North Carolina
105. Steelers: Nathan Peterman, QB, Pittsburgh
106. Seahawks: Jaleel Johnson, DT, Iowa
107. Jets: Malachi Dupre, WR, LSU
