Notes
- Exact numbers of the selections from rounds 3–7 will be determined when compensatory selections are awarded at the NFL's annual spring owners' meetings.
- The Ravens traded their 2021 third-round pick and a conditional 2022 fifth-round pick to the Minnesota Vikings for OLB Yannick Ngakoue.
- The Ravens received compensatory third-round selections in 2021 and 2022 when its assistant head coach and passing game coordinator David Culley was hired by Houston as head coach.[1]
- The Ravens acquired the Pittsburgh Steelers' 2021 fifth-round pick in exchange for their own 2021 seventh-round selection and DL Chris Wormley. The Ravens then traded the Steelers' fifth-round pick to the Minnesota Vikings along with their 2020 seventh-round pick (used by the Vikings to select DE Kenny Willekes), and received a 2020 sixth-round pick (used to select WR James Proche) and seventh-round pick (used to select S Geno Stone) in return.

Preseason
The Ravens' preseason opponents and schedule will be announced in the spring.
Regular season
2021 opponents
Listed below are the Ravens' opponents for 2021. The length of the season is contingent on whether the league expands the regular season from 16 to 17 games. If this happens, a 17th game would match the Ravens against an interconference opponent from one of the three divisions from the NFC that the Ravens are not scheduled to play in 2021, which would be the Los Angeles Rams based on division placement from 2020.[2]
Exact dates and times will be announced in the spring.

Conference opponents (AFC West) | Kansas City Chiefs Los Angeles Chargers | Denver Broncos Las Vegas Raiders |
