During the 2022 offseason, the Baltimore Ravens saw wide receiver go from a position of strength to a position of need in a matter of days. They traded away wideout Marquise Brown during the 2022 draft, and a few days before released fellow 2019 draft pick Miles Boykin.
With Brown and Boykin no longer in Baltimore, the Ravens are now even younger at the wide receiver position, with their top four wideouts being in either their second or third NFL seasons. That’s not to say they don’t have talent, especially because players such as Rashod Bateman, Devin Duvernay, James Proche II and Tylan Wallace each have a skillset that can help Baltimore win games.
Despite the potential that the Ravens’ young pass catchers have, it’s fair to ask if the team should sign a veteran who could lead the group based off of experience. There aren’t many options remaining on the free agent market, but perhaps the biggest name still available is former Atlanta Falcons and Tennessee Titans wideout Julio Jones.
