Notes

Exact numbers of the selections from rounds 3–7 will be determined when compensatory selections are awarded at the NFL's annual spring owners' meetings.
The Ravens traded their 2021 third-round pick and a conditional 2022 fifth-round pick to the Minnesota Vikings for OLB Yannick Ngakoue.
The Ravens received compensatory third-round selections in 2021 and 2022 when its assistant head coach and passing game coordinator David Culley was hired by Houston as head coach.^[1]
The Ravens acquired the Pittsburgh Steelers' 2021 fifth-round pick in exchange for their own 2021 seventh-round selection and DL Chris Wormley. The Ravens then traded the Steelers' fifth-round pick to the Minnesota Vikings along with their 2020 seventh-round pick (used by the Vikings to select DE Kenny Willekes), and received a 2020 sixth-round pick (used to select WR James Proche) and seventh-round pick (used to select S Geno Stone) in return.
