In a somewhat surprising move, TE Josh Cuevas came off the board in the 5th round to the Baltimore Ravens. He’s a guys that’s been quite productive for Alabama this season after transferring in from Washington, but has overall been a guy that wasn’t talked about much outside of Alabama circles.

He consistently displayed reliable hands and good speed and run-after-catch production and was one of Ty Simpson’s most go-to targets in crunch situations. He was an adequate college blocker, but that lack of blocking dominance had many expecting him to be a late day 3 pick.

For the Ravens, they’re adding a good depth piece who can slide in at times and be a reliable playmaker and chain mover in the passing game.

Best of luck to Josh, and Roll Tide!
