The Ravens need this rookie tandem to step up or they will have an ordinary passing game.

Snead joins an overhauled receiving group, gets opportunity to be one of Ravens' top guys.

Snead continues the Ravens' wide receiver overhaul this offseason, joining the team after the additions of Michael Crabtree and John Brown.

Snead is coming off a hugely disappointing year, but he would give the Ravens a nice option in the slot, which they lack.

Big-play receiver Dez Bryant is seeking a new home after being released by the Dallas Cowboys last week.

The Ravens introduced new backup quarterback Robert Griffin III, the former Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback from Baylor, on Wednesday.

The list of free agents who still fit with the Ravens is dwindling by the day.

It would be much easier for the Ravens to fill their wide receiver need in free agency, but don't completely rule out a trade either.

The Ravens will now be able to sign free agents again without worrying about losing a potential compensatory selection.

Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsone says "we, without a doubt in my mind, improved our football team in the last three days."

Anything could happen in the draft, but don't be surprised if the Ravens' decision comes down to a pass rusher versus a wide receiver.

ESPN draft analyst feels that the Ravens will get Joe Flacco that elusive weapon in the passing game in the first round of the 2017 draft.

The first wave of free agency is over and much of the Ravens' salary cap space is taken. But they have a few free agent moves to make.

The potential hire of Greg Roman would be a strong indication that the Ravens are indeed focused on fixing and relying on their running game.

Defensive coordinator Dean Pees didn't mince words when discussing cornerback Jimmy Smith's struggles.

If you watch the Ravens long enough during this 2015 season, you'll inevitably get a reminder of why a season that once held such most promise has dissolved into one of the most disappointing years in franchise history.

In an unrivaled third act with the 4-2 Arizona Cardinals, whom the Ravens face on Monday Night Football, Carson Palmer is looking much more like the quarterback who gave them fits through the late-2000s than the one who as recently as three years ago looked to be playing himself out of the NFL.

Five stats that stand out ahead of the Ravens-Cardinals game, including notes on the big-play potential these two teams bring, and the Ravens defensive and offensive line success.

The Ravens are considering former Chicago Bears assistant Andy Bischoff for their tight end coaching vacancy, according to sources with knowledge of the situation.

Former Maryland cornerback Trenton Hughes signed a free-agent deal with the Miami Dolphins.

The Ravens have a handful of needs. Most are not pressing. They have yet to address the offensive line this offseason and will be forced to do it in the draft. Even with the emergence of Torrey Smith a year ago, they are looking for another game-changer at wide receiver. Terrell Suggs lacks a true sidekick. And then there is the annual question about whether this is the year they need to prepare for life after Ray Lewis and Ed Reed. In my fifth and final first-round mock draft, I give you a semi-educated guess at whom the Ravens will select with the 29th pick. Is it still Wisconsin center Peter Konz? Read on to find out.

The 2012 NFL draft is now just over a week away. Free agency has died down, and teams are shifting their focus to the draft to round out their rosters. The Ravens are no exception. Their primary needs are still the same as they were entering the offseason: offensive line help, a pass rusher and a receiver. This mock draft -- the fourth of five I will do before the draft -- doesn't account for trades. And remember, these are called "mock" drafts for a reason. Try not to take them too seriously, folks.

The 2012 NFL draft is three weeks away, and though most teams have solidified their draft boards barring a few tweaks after prospects visit, the "silly season" of draft rumors is really starting to heat up. Need an example? How about the rumblings that the Colts are undecided about the first pick? But hey, I love mock drafts as much as you do, so allow me to contribute to the silly season with my third mock draft of the offseason.

After a wild first week in free agency that was punctuated with Peyton Manning signing with the Denver Broncos, we have a better idea of what needs teams will address in April's NFL draft. So now seems like a good time for our second mock draft of the offseason. (This mock draft does not account for potential trades.) And remember, these are called "mock" drafts for a reason. Try not to take them too seriously.

The Ravens have stated that adding another wide receiver to the mix is one of their top offseason priorities.

Wide receiver prospects Stephen Hill, Michael Floyd to meet with Ravens at NFL scouting combine

What kind of priority are the Ravens putting on finding a wide receiver? It's a question that Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome will surely get this afternoon when he meets with reporters on the second full day of the NFL scouting combine.

This year's NFL scouting combine begins Wednesday, unofficially marking the start of draft speculation season. Before the prospects are poked and prodded, though, staff writer Matt Vensel has taken his first crack at predicting the first round of April's NFL draft.

The NFL scouting combine starts Feb. 22. In advance of the NFL's annual meat market in Indianapolis, staff writer Matt Vensel will examine each position and give Ravens fans the 4-1-1.
