Exactly which way the Baltimore Ravens will go in the first round of the NFL Draft is up for debate, with Jesse Minter's team having several roster holes that need addressing.
Holding the No. 14 overall pick, the Ravens have the chance to get a genuine star to come in and start Day 1.
But who could the Ravens target?
Bleacher Report's Brad Gagnon thinks there is an inevitability with one player, and that's guard Olaivavega Ioane.
"The Ravens need to replace three-time Pro Bowler Tyler Linderbaum, and the interior offensive line was a major issue even before Linderbaum's departure," Gagnon wrote. "Ioane can make a major immediate impact as the best guard in this class."

Ravens desperate for offensive line help
Even before the loss of center Tyler Linderbaum, the Ravens were already in need of offensive line reinforcements.
Now, with the Pro Bowl center with the Las Vegas Raiders, the Ravens have to fill that hole, plus fortify the interior, which is where Ioane fits in.
It won't be a sexy pick for the Ravens, but it will certainly fill a need in front of Lamar Jackson.
There have been some mocks where Baltimore selects a receiver and a pass rusher, but maybe solidifying the offensive line is the way to go.
