2026 Outlook

Sarratt is a "physical chain-mover" who produced consistently in college (200 receptions, 2,978 yards, 31 TDs in 40 games at James Madison and Indiana, with 15 TDs in 2025). Despite being drafted after slot-mate Ja'Kobi Lane in the Ravens' receiver class, analysts believe Sarratt will outplay his draft value due to his slot assignment. He'll face less competition for snaps in the slot and could see early playing time alongside Odell Beckham and Bateman in three-receiver sets (per NFL writer explains why Elijah Sarratt is the rookie WR who could breakout for Ravens).

Sarratt could fill the role vacated by Isaiah Likely's departure to the Giants, functioning as a jumbo slot receiver in the Ravens offense. While the Ravens traditionally rank low in pass rate, the opportunity created by Likely's exit provides a ceiling for a player with consistent production and chain-moving ability. (per 2026 Fantasy Football Dynasty Rookie Rankings: Post-NFL Draft)

Role / Depth Chart

Slot receiver, rookie. Expected to carve out early role due to reduced competition in the slot; should see field time in 3-WR sets.
