Baltimore Ravens receive:
Projected trade compensation
Ravens receive: Tennessee Titans 2021 4th round pick
Titans receive: Mark Ingram
Over the last five years, running back trades before the season starts net the team trading away the running back a Day 3 pick.
I am giving the Ravens a good deal here because I think that the Titans need proven depth on the roster at running back and I also think that Jon Robinson thinks that 4th round draft picks are overvalued by the NFL as a whole.
With four picks in the first three rounds, I think the Titans look to move back and collect more picks for even more flexibility during the actual draft. However, the chances are that they won’t need to replace many (if any) starters in the 2021 NFL Draft and the team doesn’t even look for starters on Day 3.
This gives the Ravens more draft picks to move around if they want to or to replace parts on a team that is about to get very expensive, very quickly.
