Offensive Linemen Tyler Guyton, Joe Morgan 'Fits' Ravens

The Baltimore Ravens website listed Oklahoma's Tyler Guyton and Arizona's Joe Morgan as fits in the 2024 NFL Draft.

The offensive line that helped anchor the best rushing attack in the NFL last season could look very different in 2024. 

For the Baltimore Ravens, center Tyler Linderbaum is the only starter guaranteed to return next season. Guards Kevin Zeitler and John Simpson set the hit free agency, and offensive tackles Ronnie Stanley and Morgan Moses are potential cut candidates given the team's cap situation.

The odds all four players return next season are unlikely, meaning the Ravens will likely replenish the offensive line through the draft. The Ravens' team website broke down offensive linemen who can fit what they're looking for at the position and listed Oklahoma's Tyler Guyton and Arizona's Jordan Morgan as good fits for them when they pick in the first round. 

Guyton didn't allow a single sack in 2023, though Pro Football Focus credited the 6-foot-8, 322-pound lineman with allowing three quarterback hits and nine hurries. He played in 663 snaps and was given a 63.7 grade from PFF. 

Next Gen Sports graded Guyton in the top ten for production score, athleticism score and total score of 83, and he had a prospect grade of 6.44, which projects him to be a good starter in two years.

"He is a prototypical guy in terms of what you want from a size perspective with an NFL offensive tackle," Garrett Downing of the Ravens' team website said of Guyton. "[6-foot-8, 322 pounds], looking good coming off the bus. Long, lengthy tackle who has all the athleticism in the world. He's a good pass blocker, and also, he's really dangerous in the run game." 

Morgan had a 78 production score, 81 athleticism score and 84 total score. The 6-foot-5, 311-pound lineman had a 6.36 prospect grade, which projects him to eventually be a plus starter.

Downing also lauded Morgan's return from a torn ACL in Nov. 2022 and not missing a game in 2023. He also noted Morgan's versatility and how that could be a fit given the Ravens' uncertainty on the offensive line. 

"This is a player who has a high floor and a high ceiling," Downing said of Morgan. "[He was a] really consistent player throughout his college career. He has good size, six-foot-five [and] 325 pounds. When you read all the scouting reports on him, everybody praises his athleticism and his consistency throughout his career...Morgan has some positional flexibility as well. He could play tackle or guard, and as the Ravens have all these questions along the offensive line, that flexibility is certainly attractive with him." 

Keeping Lamar Jackson upright and getting more weapons should be among the Ravens' priorities this offseason. if Morgan or Guyton is there at No. 30, getting either of them to address their offensive line issues would make plenty of sense.
