The Baltimore Ravens<\/a>‘ offseason has been up and down with the franchise walking back on the Maxx Crosby trade, only to then sign Trey Hendrickson a day later.<\/p>\n

They have lost Isaiah Likely and Tyler Linerbaum, leaving two holes on offense, and they hold the No. 14 pick in the upcoming draft.<\/p>\n

Who could the Ravens take? Well, there’s a host of players that will be available in positions of need for Baltimore, but what if the franchise used some draft capital to trade for a player?<\/p>\n

That is what Fox Sports’ Ralph Vacchiano is thinking in his latest thought exercise, with the Ravens sending a third-round pick this year and a conditional 2027 fifth-round pick to the New York Giants<\/a> for\u00a0Kayvon Thibodeaux.<\/p>\n

“Jesse Minter is taking over a team ready for a Super Bowl run, but still too dangerously thin on the edge,” Vacchiano wrote<\/a>. “The Ravens could fix that by adding Thibodeaux, who is an expensive luxury for the Giants.”<\/p>\n

Could Ravens get\u00a0Kayvon Thibodeaux?<\/p>\n

Well, we know his time in New York of late has reportedly not being the best, and John Harbaugh did say everyone is tradable, so there’s that.<\/p>\n

But what the Giants would want in return is interesting.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Is what Vacchiano is proposing enough to entice the Giants to move on from Kayvon? Maybe.<\/p>\n

The Ravens have a need, and in this scenario, they won’t be giving up a first-round pick either, which is a plus.<\/p>\n

It does feel like this is a move that wouldn’t happen, but in the NFL, you never know how things will play out on draft night.<\/p>\n
