Top Needs: WR, TE, ILB, OLB
The Baltimore Ravens need to invest in getting quarterback Joe Flacco real receiving weapons; the Ravens’ wideouts generated just the 18th-most Reception NEP per target this year. Aging wide receiver Steve Smith is retiring this season, Kamar Aiken could leave in free agency, and they still don't know what to make of Breshad Perriman.
In addition, Baltimore tight ends saw the 9th-most targets but had the 12th-least total Reception NEP. Dennis Pitta is a candidate to be cut, and while Darren Waller and Maxx Williams are young, the Ravens could look to add depth to the group.
The Ravens are a model of stability in their linebacking corps. Normally this would be a good thing, but Elvis Dumervil and Terrell Suggs are getting old, and inside man Zach Orr retired. They ranked 12th and 1st by Adjusted Defensive Passing and Rushing NEP per play, respectively, but they might not next year if they don’t address needs.
