The Baltimore Ravens are set to meet with Memphis Tigers offensive lineman prospect ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft.
The Baltimore Ravens are the most talked-about teams in the league this offseason, due to the uncertain nature of the roster following a wild free agency.
Following a trade for Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby, the deal would be rescinded, and Baltimore would go on to lose 11 players to other teams. The good news is the Ravens are stacked with picks for the upcoming draft.
Baltimore has 11 picks in this year's draft, and with how their offseason has transpired, it's important they nail a ton of their picks. There's a lot they need to get right, and that includes the offensive line.
The Ravens want to do all they can to protect Lamar Jackson, and they are set to meet with Memphis Tigers offensive lineman Travis Burke.
Justin Melo of NFL Draft On SI shared the news via X.
The meeting is set to take place in late March. Burke participated in the NFL combine and started 11 games for the Tigers last season. His 2025 season was cut short due to a season-ending foot injury.
Nonetheless, Burke was named a First-Team All-CUSA selection and is healthy as the draft approaches.
The Hollywood, Florida native stands at 6-foot-9 and weighs 325 pounds. The senior tackle is projected to be an average backup to a special teamer, according to NFL Draft analyst Lance Zierlein.
"Burke is a tall tackle with plus drive-blocking talent for his body type. He uses flexible hips and ankles, along with well-placed hands, to create leverage at the point of attack. He finishes blocks with good aggression when the opportunity arises. A lack of short-area quickness limits his range as a run blocker and in pass protection. He’s scheme-dependent in the run game and will need help managing NFL edge speed, but strong hands allow for longer sustained control when he lands cleanly. There are areas of concern that might not be coachable, but Burke’s length and demeanor work in his favor."
While Burke is not a perfect prospect, he displays great qualities. Zierlein says that Burke has a heavy-handed punch to fit and control run blocks, gets into first contact with surprising bend for a tall tackle, and uses his height with a firm, well-timed punch into rushers.
The Ravens desperately need to upgrade their offensive line. Whether they do so with their first pick in this year's draft or their last, it's a clear need they must address to be competitive this fall.
According to NFL Draft Buzz, Burke is projected to go undrafted.
