Still, if the coaching staff and/or management don’t feel comfortable with this crop of receivers, it could mean someone like Brandon Lloyd, Brandon Stokely or Brandon Banks get’s a look at some point.

Lloyd would be the most intriguing prospect after he nearly reached 1,000 yards last season with the New England Patriots, but he was released due to a $3 million roster bonus, and he’s also viewed as a “me-first”player that would require a strong locker-room to handle. The Ravens may not have that anymore after so many veteran players retired or departed via free agency this offseason.
