The Baltimore Ravens aren’t exactly known for leaning heavily on their rookies. But that might need to change in 2021.

NFL.com’s Marc Sessler recently released a list detailing one remaining priority for every AFC team. And for the Ravens, he insisted that the team must “lean on their rookie class” this season.

Historically speaking, the Ravens have been a veteran-reliant team in recent years, especially on defense.

While players like Patrick Queen and Marquise Brown were immediately thrust into prominent roles, the majority of the team’s draft classes tend to play part-time roles early on.
