Ravens Take Hayden Hurst At No. 25 Overall
7 years agoThe Baltimore Ravens selected South Carolina tight end Hayden Hurst with the 25th overall pick of the 2018 NFL draft. Hurst was drafted in the 17th round by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2013. A Thor lookalike, Hurst is 6-foot-4 and could immediately make an impact in the passing game for Baltimore in 2018. He has a great story behind him, and he can play out wide or inside in the slot. Hurst has great hands, a good catch radius and can break tackles. Hurst can win on the edge and is physical, too, so he could block if asked. He's easily the most impressive tight end in this draft class. Don't expect much out of him in his rookie year, but he could be a sleeper in deeper leagues with quarterback Joe Flacco often times hooking up with tight ends in the red zone.
