The Ravens need to get younger and deeper on the defensive line this offseason

The average age of the Baltimore Ravens’ starting defensive linemen at the start of the 2020 season was just over 31 years old. Assuming that impending free agent Derek Wolfe is re-signed and his fellow veterans Calais Campbell and Brandon Williams are also retained, that stat will likely remain on the wrong side of 30 next season.

When healthy, they are a formidable unit but last season proved that the team can’t bank on that for the entire season. None of the three starters played in all 16 regular-season games and the lack of quality depth behind them was apparent when they were out of the lineup.
