Bisciotti's Draft Pick: Adam Randall, Ravens' New Beast

0:00On April 27, the Baltimore Ravens nailed another strong draft, grabbing 11 new players, including some solid lineman, a pass rusher, and wide receivers. But owner Steve Bissiates got his own standout favor from the bunch. Clemson running back Adam Randall, picked in the fifth round at number one, 174. Bissiates always dreamed of calling his own shot in the draft room, even doing his own scouting reports for GM Eric DeCosta. This year, with four fifth round picks on deck, he finally talked to Costa into letting him pull the trigger. He even got the Costa's 15-year-old son to help scout the perfect fit. On draft day, tension was thick. They worried another team or even DeCosta himself at pick number 173 would snag Randall first. Bissiates got super stressed on the clock, admitting this stuff is way harder than it looks while DeCosta called it a bear feeling. Randall's a beast at six foot three, 232 pounds, who switched from wide receiver to running back.

1:01Last season at Clemson, he rushed for 814 yards in 10 scores, plus caught 354 receiving yards. He's got that rare mix of power and open field speed that could light up the backfield for Lamar Jackson and Derek Henry. Experts gave the pick a B-grade. If Randall balls out, don't be shocked if Bissiates starts eyeing more draft calls to build this Raven Squad even deeper. From around the league, powered by AI, this is NFL News Today.
