Ordinarily, the Baltimore Ravens are content to just let some of their budding-but-not-foundational players walk in free agency in hopes of reaping the compensatory rewards when they know that realistically they can’t keep said players at their asking price. We have seen this quite a bit particularly among their linebackers and offensive linemen.
With a change in general manager, though, perhaps we may see a bit of a shift in philosophy. One change we saw in 2019 was the extensive number of extensions that were worked on and completed in-season, including one for cornerback Marcus Peters, who was acquired via an in-season trade himself.
