Could K Tyler Loop be the Ravens' successor to Justin Tucker?

OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- After weeks of working out kickers all over the country, Baltimore Ravens senior special teams coach Randy Brown had a clear-cut message for the team heading into the draft.

Brown told general manager Eric DeCosta, "There's one guy that I really covet."

The Ravens wanted Arizona's Tyler Loop so much that they made him the first kicker drafted in the franchise's 30-year history. On Saturday, Baltimore used a sixth-round pick on Loop, who suddenly finds himself involved in the biggest question facing the team: Will Loop replace Justin Tucker as Baltimore's kicker?
