The Baltimore Ravens<\/a>‘ offseason has been a little up and down, but the franchise still has some glaring needs as the draft approaches.<\/p>\n

With Tyler Linderbaum now with the Las Vegas Raiders<\/a>, the Ravens’ offensive line doesn’t look as stout as it once did.<\/p>\n

With there still being some quality free agents out there waiting for a phone call, Baltimore still has plenty of options.<\/p>\n

And for Bleacher Report’s Gary Davenport, he thinks the Ravens should go after Ethan Pocic.<\/p>\n

“Ethan Pocic may not be the player he once was,\u201d Davenport wrote<\/a>. \u201cThe 30-year-old also missed four games last year. But in 826 snaps last year with the Cleveland Browns<\/a>, Pocic allowed just two sacks and committed just two penalties per PFF.<\/p>\n

“The Ravens have the cap space to add Pocic, and he may well welcome the opportunity to play for a contender.”<\/p>\n

More:\u00a0Eagles still coy on A.J. Brown’s future<\/a><\/p>\n

Ravens have to help Lamar<\/p>\n

Yes, the franchise signed Trey Hendrickson to help the defense, but make no mistake, the Ravens will only go as far as Lamar takes them.<\/p>\n

Which means putting as much talent around him as possible is key here.<\/p>\n

Fixing the offensive line\u00a0and potentially adding another weapon in the draft must be done, as the Ravens’ offense needs to be the straw that stirs this team’s drink.<\/p>\n

Will it happen? Who knows, but signing Pocic is a good start.<\/p>\n

But far more is needed if Baltimore is going to seriously challenge in 2026.<\/p>\n
