The Baltimore Ravens have been gifted with numerous talented players on the defensive fronts over their 26-year history. From Tony Siragusa to Haloti Ngata to Calais Campbell and everyone in between, the team has had dominant defenses in part due to the play of their defensive linemen.
When ranking the best NFL defensive lines ahead of the 2022 season, Ben Linsey of Pro Football Focus put Baltimore’s unit in the third tier out of six total. He placed them in the “solid, all around defensive fronts” category, which landed them at No. 18 overall. When explaining his decision, Linsey acknowledged the team made some strong moves in free agency and the draft.
“Baltimore added some size on the interior with Michael Pierce‘s return in free agency in addition to drafting Travis Jones out of UConn. Both should help bolster their run defense alongside Calais Campbell and Justin Madubuike.”
