Majority of Ravens fans believe the Malaki Starks selection in Round 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft is an ‘A’ Grade.
These poll results are sponsored by FanDuel Sportsbook, the official sports betting partner of SB Nation. Following the draft, the Ravens are the No. 2 betting favorite to win Super Bowl LX at +750.
Earlier last week, Baltimore Beatdown polled its community on what grade they’d give the Baltimore Ravens’ No. 27 overall pick of safety Malaki Starks in the 2025 NFL Draft. Overwhelmingly, they graded the pick as an ‘A’ grade.
Ravens fans aren’t the only ones praising the selection, either. Across the NFL media landscape, many are giving the Ravens an A grade for their selection of Starks. ESPN’s Jordan Reid had the Starks selection as their favorite pick in the draft.
“Once again, the Ravens allowed the board to fall to them and simply took the best player available. Starks doesn’t play a position of immediate need, but the Ravens don’t bypass talent to reach for needs at certain positions. With the recent release of Marcus Williams, Starks could start right away at free safety and be another crucial performer for an already versatile secondary.”
