Leading up to the 2025 NFL Draft, we will track where Ohio State Buckeyes offensive lineman Donovan Jackson appears in the latest NFL mock drafts.
Donovan Jackson NFL Mock Drafts
Here are some of the latest mock drafts in which Jackson has appeared:
No. 27 overall — Baltimore Ravens
While Jackson's film at tackle was surprisingly encouraging, I view him best as a guard. He has length and the explosive strength to really jar holes open. His ability to bump outside in case of emergency is a bonus, and his size fits right in with the Ravens' pretty robust line (sans Tyler Linderbaum).
No. 16 overall — Arizona Cardinals
More blocking stability in front of Kyler Murray and for James Conner and Trey Benson is needed in the desert. Jackson is an athletic guard with super-clean tape.
No. 27 overall — Baltimore Ravens
Baltimore was able to keep left tackle Ronnie Stanley but lost guard Patrick Mekari. What Jackson did last year, moving from left guard to left tackle for Ohio State, was impressive — and he played left tackle very well. He was an All-American-caliber guard, too. Jackson would help build an offensive line that gives Lamar Jackson a chance.
