Much of the offseason discussion in Baltimore has centered around general manager Eric DeCosta’s veteran acquisitions of Sammy Watkins, Kevin Zeitler and Alejandro Villanueva. A rookie class headlined by Rashod Bateman, Odafe Oweh and Ben Cleveland has generated hype, as have the potential improvements from second-year performers Patrick Queen, J.K. Dobbins and Justin Madubuike.
Naturally, Lamar Jackson and his remaining 2018 draft classmates, including Mark Andrews and Bradley Bozeman, have generated headlines as they enter the final season of their rookie contracts. And franchise cornerstones Marlon Humphrey, Ronnie Stanley, Jimmy Smith and Brandon Williams continue to set the tone.
