Jordan Lasley Worked Out With Lamar Jackson

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Jordan Lasley spent the offseason training with quarterback Lamar Jackson. Jackson's quarterbacks coach, Josh Harris, had nothing but good things to say about Lasley. The 22-year-old wasn't active for a single game in his rookie season, but with Baltimore's receiver depth chart barren as it stands right now, he'll have plenty […]

Lamar Jackson Trying To Improve Accuracy

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson said he made it a point to keep a wide base while trying to improve his accuracy this offseason.

NFL Draft 32 for 32 - Baltimore Ravens

Big changes hit the Baltimore Ravens mid-season in 2018. The switch at quarterback from Joe Flacco to Lamar Jackson was appropriately timed and sent this team to the playoffs. Jackson took over the full-time duties in Week 11 and was the ninth-best QB in fantasy over that span. His eye-popping 558 rushing yards paced the […]

Ravens Hosting Marquise Brown

The Baltimore Ravens are hosting Oklahoma wide receiver Marquise Brown for a visit on Monday, according to a source.

D.K. Metcalf Visiting With Ravens

Ole Miss wide receiver D.K. Metcalf is visiting with the Baltimore Ravens on Monday, according to a source.

They currently […]

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards signed his exclusive-rights tender on Monday. Running back De'Lance Turner, center Matt Skura and offensive lineman Jermaine Eluemunor also signed their tenders.

Marshal Yanda Agrees To One-Year Extension

The Baltimore Ravens agreed to an undisclosed one-year contract extension with seven-time Pro Bowl guard Marshal Yanda on Thursday, according to league sources. Yanda was entering the final season of his current deal, so he'll be locked in through the 2020 season now. Yanda remains one of the best offensive guards in football, and his […]

Ravens To Visit With Josh Jacobs

The Baltimore Ravens are set to visit with Alabama running back Josh Jacobs. The Ravens already have Gus Edwards, Mark Ingram and Kenneth Dixon, but they may not be done adding to their backfield and are fully committed to a run-first approach with Lamar Jackson under center as the franchise signal-caller. Jacobs would obviously have […]

Ravens Sign Seth Roberts

The Baltimore Ravens signed free-agent wide receiver Seth Roberts to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, according to a source. Baltimore is in serious need of beefing up their receiver corps, and Roberts barely moves the needle alongside Willie Snead, Jordan Lasley, Chris Moore, Quincy Adeboyejo and Jaleel Scott. Roberts had 45 catches for 494 […]

NFL Draft 32 for 32 - Buffalo Bills Outlook

Although the way the season unraveled for the Buffalo Bills, the argument can be made that this a team headed in the right direction. They have likely found their quarterback of the future in Josh Allen, while also sporting a young and improving defense. Just two years removed from a playoff appearance, with just a […]

Ravens Expect Marshal Yanda To Play In 2019

The Baltimore Ravens expect Pro Bowl right guard Marshal Yanda to play in 2019. There had been speculation that Yanda was considering retirement, but the Ravens fully believe he'll be their starting right guard this year. It would be a big blow to the Ravens, an extremely run-first team under new franchise quarterback Lamar Jackson, […]

Ravens To Keep Jimmy Smith

Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta all but affirmed that veteran cornerback Jimmy Smith will remain with the team in 2019. "One of the greatest strengths of our team right now is our secondary. I think it would be foolish for us to make a strength a weakness for no reason," DeCosta said. Smith is […]

Willie Snead Currently Baltimore's Top Receiver

The Baltimore Ravens didn't address their wide receiver position in free agency, meaning Willie Snead and Chris Moore, who combined for two touchdowns last year, are currently at the top of the receiver depth chart. Jordan Lasley (inactive all year), Jaleel Scott (coming off Injured Reserve) and Quincy Adeboyejo (coming off IR) round out the […]

Ravens Re-Sign Backup Robert Griffin III

The Baltimore Ravens re-signed backup quarterback Robert Griffin III on Thursday to an undisclosed two-year deal. The 29-year-old will continue to back up starter Lamar Jackson in 2019. The former first-round pick can be an invaluable source for Jackson as he matures heading into his second season, but RG3 will continue to have no fantasy […]

Long-time defensive lineman Haloti Ngata announced his retirement on Instagram on Monday. The 35-year-old played for the Eagles in 2018 after three years with the Lions.

Air Yards Analysis - Using the Statistic to Find Value at WR

Air yards: a simple term in itself but for fantasy football what is the significance? In essence, air yards is a cumulative total of a player's depth of target. It only includes yards traveled from the time the QB releases it up to the moment the ball is either dropped or caught by the receiver. […]

Ravens Reach Deal With Mark Ingram

The Baltimore Ravens reached a three-year, $15 million deal with free-agent running back Mark Ingram on Wednesday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Rookie Running Back Sleepers and Dynasty Targets

With the NFL Combine over and done with, we have a pretty good idea of the landscape of this upcoming draft class.
