Why keeping Za’Darius Smith would make sense for the Ravens

Let’s put the C.J. Mosley vs. Za’Darius Smith conversation on the side for a bit. The Baltimore Ravens should want to bring back both players. Instead of picking one or another, let’s see why the Ravens should be very in on Za’Darius Smith.

Smith is a player that has really developed over his rookie deal. He came out of Kentucky as a raw pass rusher who had a lot of work to do. Smith had 5.5 sacks in his rookie year. In 2017 he dealt with some injury issues, but he had 3.5 sacks and he shined when he had the opportunity.
