The Baltimore Ravens will have a new running back toting the rock in 2019, as Mark Ingram will be the feature back for this Lamar Jackson-led offense. Ingram is one of the more reliable backs in the NFL when he is on the field, and his leadership should only help the progression of their second-year quarterback in 2019.
Last season, Jackson took over for an injured Joe Flacco and led the team to a bunch of wins, culminating with the Ravens coming out of nowhere to win the AFC North. His prowess under center allowed the Ravens to part ways with Flacco via a trade with the Denver Broncos, making this the Lamar Jackson Show moving forward.
In order for the show to continue to grow, the Ravens need to add some talent at wide receiver, and that is where they should focus their 2019 first round pick. The best overall wideout in this draft class is D.K. Metcalf from Ole Miss, who is the kind of presence in the passing game Jackson needs to take the next step in his development.
Head coach John Harbaugh is one of the best in the game, and he has a nice canvas to work with this season. There is no reason why the Ravens cannot repeat in the division in 2019, but the Cleveland Browns are coming on strong, and you know the Pittsburgh Steelers are going to find a way to win games even without Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell next season.
