Much has been made over the past few seasons concerning the place of running backs in the NFL’s current hierarchy.
Opinions can vary a little from one person to another, but it tends to go quarterback, pass-rusher, receiver, offensive line, corner… and, wedged somewhere in between holder and towel-folder falls running backs.
How the times have changed.
But that most certainly is not the case in Baltimore, where running backs do matter (outside of, you know, in conference championship games…)
The Ravens added to their room in a big way this offseason with the signing of eclipse-causer Derrick Henry, and the star back said he long had Baltimore in his mind as a landing spot.
