Scout's Take: Baltimore Ravens

Old Man River. He comes back for another go-round. The guy was unbelievably productive last year, hands down the best receiver on the team at age 37, before he ruptured his Achilles. If he’s not the most competitive player on the field every Sunday, he’s right up there with them. And he’s not a big person but he has a way of playing big. He is unbelievably passionate about the game and is really a treat for all of us to watch, unless it’s your team that is playing him. It’s amazing how great he has been for so long—the 5’9”, 180-something pound receiver has been defying the odds since he came into the league as a JuCo transfer.
