The Baltimore Ravens wrapped up their 2018 NFL Draft class with the selection of Ferris State DE Zach Sieler in the seventh round on Saturday.
While that may not seem like too exciting of a pick, it did mark something special — the final pick of Baltimore GM Ozzie Newsome’s legendary career.
Newsome, a former Alabama tight end who is a College Football Hall of Famer, has won two Super Bowls during his time with the Ravens. Below, you can see the emotional moment following his final selection:

Newsome fittingly drafted two Alabama players — CB Anthony Averett in Round 4 and C Bradley Bozeman in Round 6 — in his final draft in charge of the Ravens.
He’ll probably end up in the Pro Football Hall of Fame as an executive, too, following his exceptional career in Baltimore.
