Those who know Ravens safety Malaki Starks say his maturity, passion and understanding of the game are unlike anything they’ve seen.

Baltimore's secondary has elite versatility, with Kyle Hamilton, Ar'Darius Washington, and Malaki Starks. Washington can play safety and nickel. Marlon Humphrey plays outside and in the slot. Nate Wiggins and Chidobe Awuzie are on the outside.

Pro Football Network: "Grade: A+. The Baltimore Ravens played the board and got one of the best value deals in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Malaki Starks was a top-10 prospect on my board, and he's a perfect fit for what the Ravens need on the back end of their defense."
