It’s old hat by now to say that the Baltimore Ravens’ focus during this offseason was to upgrade their receiver group. They invested heavy resources in the effort, utilizing both free agency and the draft to do so, and that process started with the signing of free agent Sammy Watkins.
A former first-round pick with the Buffalo Bills, he did play under current Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman for two seasons in 2015 and 2016, and is now reunited once again, flanked by Baltimore’s own recent first-round picks: Marquise Brown in 2019, and Rashod Bateman in 2021.
Suffice it to say that Roman has a pretty high opinion of his new weapon, having followed his career and even coached him in the past.
