Much was made of the Ravens taking a look at Browns tight end David Njoku a few weeks back, but he\u2019s hardly the only player remaining from a pretty meh overall free agent class that would be a quality fit at the right price. A strong case could be made for at least four veterans.<\/p>\n
The Ravens head into this draft with some glaring needs<\/a> \u2013 short term and long term \u2013 that could well be filled with a stopgap veteran signing or two. Heck, are we sure that Njoku, for all the problems he\u2019s caused Baltimore\u2019s defenses at times over the years, is even the best possible fit to address the void remaining at that position. <\/p>\n And, yeah, the Ravens have a lot of draft picks, but this team needs some more sure things when you look at center, tackle, guard, tight end, receiver, defensive tackle, edge. I could go on.<\/p>\n There are plenty of players still out there, who won\u2019t break the bank, that could fit. These four in particular:<\/p>\n Cam Robinson\/Jonah Williams<\/p>\n Okay, I\u2019m already cheating, but you get the idea. This team needs a swing tackle who can hold things down \u2013 possibly for more than half the season given Ronnie Stanley possibly being on borrowed time \u2013 for half a season. Best start preparing for the worst-case scenario. And, after last season, if you think Roger Rosengarten is ready to be a starting left tackle we aren\u2019t watching the same games. <\/p>\n Grab a developmental left tackle on day three and buy yourself that luxury by going this route now. Robinson had more than solid pass pro grades last season and I don\u2019t think he costs you more than $7-$9M for one year. <\/p>\n He wasn\u2019t terrible for Cleveland last season at all. If you created $40M in cap room with Lamar Jackson\u2019s restructure, how about spending some of it for some real fortification up front. Williams has been a bit of a medical reject at times and will never live up to his billing, but he can toggle between sides and has left tackle starting experience in this division and the price won be bad.<\/p>\n Is Njoku Even The Best Tight End Fit?<\/p>\n Darren Waller \u2013 He didn\u2019t unretire like three times to end up signing with some scrub team like the Giants and Dolphins teams he was spinning his wheels with. <\/p>\n
