Add a league for Mock Drafting, Draft War Room & In-season sync
The Ravens stopped the slide of Marshall Edge Mike Green with the 27th pick of Round 2 on Friday night. On the football side, Green looked like a first-rounder. He racked up an FBS-leading 17 sacks in 2024, along with a class-leading 23 tackles for loss. Pro Football Focus graded him the No. 1 edge in all of FBS last year. And he rated even higher as a run defender than a pass rusher. So why didn't he go earlier? Sexual-assault allegations. Green revealed at the Combine that he had one in high school and another in college. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport says the first installed a "zero tolerance" policy for Green at Virginia. The second got him booted from that first college stop. Green Then transferred to Marshall and ultimately had just one starting season. Green denied the allegations. But his treatment by Virginia and now the NFL at least imply skepticism.
There's immediate opportunity available. Baltimore had no edge player spent more than 56% of defensive snaps on the field. Odafe Oweh and Kyle Van Noy nearly tied at that number. (Van Noy played five more total snaps for the year.) Tavius Robinson trailed them at 42.9%.
There's room for Green to jump into that rotation right away. We'll have to see just how much playing time the rookie can claim.
Expect Green to land in DL4 territory of the 2025 IDP rankings. He could prove relevant in 2025 but will probably need sack- and pressure-friendly scoring to realize meaningful upside.
Van Noy's heading into his age-34 season. Oweh's heading into the final year of his rookie contract (on the club option). And no one else at the position has produced.
If Green avoids off-field issues, he should at least have a shot at helping your IDP lineup by 2026. He's an upside pick in sack-friendly leagues.
