Ravens draft Mike Green with 2nd-round pick

The Baltimore Ravens selected Marshall edge rusher Mike Green in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 59th overall.

Green revealed at the NFL combine that he was previously accused of sexual assault twice but denied any wrongdoing.

The Marshall product was named second-team All-American after recording a FBS-leading 17 sacks in 2024. Green was also named the Sun Belt Player of the Year after tallying 21.5 sacks over two seasons with the Thundering Herd.

The Ravens add more firepower to an edge rusher group that's headline by Odafe Oweh and Kyle Van Noy.

Pre-draft profile

Green has the traits to be an impact edge rusher in the league. The Marshall product is an impressive athlete with good upfield burst and the ability to explode into contact. He has the speed and bend to beat offensive tackles around the edge as well as the change of direction to pose a threat laterally. And with a deep bag of pass-rush moves, there's no shortage of ways he can create chaos in the backfield. Green's 17-sack campaign will be questioned, given the competition level in the Sun Belt, but he also had opportunities against Power 4 opponents last year. A big game against Virginia Tech and a beautiful outside spin for a sack versus Ohio State should ease any such concerns. And while he doesn't have the ideal size or length for an every-down end, he plays with ample drive and physicality to contribute against the run on the weak side. Green could record double-digit sacks early in his pro career.
