Cohen’s Corner Part 2: Ravens surprise us all, and plan for the future
Just as I unplugged my laptop, I saw the Ravens logo flip up on the Ravens TV screen. They had traded up to the 32nd pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
I had come into this draft wanting Lamar Jackson at the 16th pick. I believed it was time for a change. The Ravens wouldn’t need Jackson to start this year, and they can prepare to build the team around Jackson in the future.
I didn’t think it would actually happen.
When the Ravens logo popped up on the TV screen, I freaked out a little bit. I realized what was happening. The Ravens were about to take Lamar Jackson.
The pick was announced, and I rushed to open a new story on Baltimore Beatdown, and add a sequel to my column for the night.
