Mike Williams. 19. player. 26. . Wide Receiver. Baltimore Ravens

Baltimore Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome continues to do amazing things, and it’s no secret why the Ravens are 3-1 and boasting a good defense again.

But Baltimore needs help at wide receiver heading into 2017. Steve Smith Sr. and Mike Wallace are both on the wrong side of 30 years old, and even tight end Dennis Pitta is losing a step.

Clemson wideout Mike Williams could wind up as the No. 1 receiving option coming out in the NFL Draft, if his stock continues to rise. As for now, he’d be the first target for Newsome and a Ravens offense looking to add young and explosive playmakers.
