MUST READ : 3 new Ravens players who will be upgrades this season

Last season, the Baltimore Ravens suffered from a number of significant free agent departures as starting players like Kevin Zeitler, Patrick Queen, and Geno Stone, to mention a few, all chose lucrative jobs elsewhere. In order to bolster the roster, Eric DeCosta had to step up, and he did.

 

 

Although Baltimore didn’t spend much in free agency, certain significant needs were filled by its most significant additions. The Ravens, who were one game away from winning the Super Bowl, valued continuity and invested a large portion of their available budget in rehiring seasoned veterans.

 

The Ravens might be able to duplicate their exceptional season from the previous year in 2024 if these new additions are combined with a very strong class of players selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, which was generally considered to be among the best in the industry. That improvement in quality should be greatly attributed to these three recent additions.

Three new guys to look forward to from the Baltimore Ravens this season:

3. RT Rosengarten Roger

The addition of Rosengarten, maybe the greatest pass-blocking pure right tackle in this class, could make Rosengarten an instant starter. The Ravens realized they needed to utilize a high-end draft pick on an offensive lineman who could help offset many of the departures Baltimore has had to swallow.

 

Rosengarten will have to defeat new signing Josh Jones and holdover Daniel Faalele before being awarded a starting position. But Faalele lacks Rosengarten’s dexterity in pass protection, and Jones’ performance with Arizona and Houston has been incredibly uneven.

The Baltimore Ravens could start Roger Rosengarten.

Serving as left-handed gunslinger Michael Penix Jr.’s blind side defender at Washington, Rosengarten was not accountable for a single sack allotted in his final two seasons. His development from 2022 to 2023 as a run blocker was a major factor in Dillon Johnson’s breakthrough.

 

Rosengarten has a lot on his plate because he will be asked to defend Lamar Jackson, one of the finest players in the game, by a squad that wants to win a title. Rosengarten remains the best option for John Harbaugh, even with Jones and Faalele on the bench.
