3. WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling

This isn’t the Green Bay Packers speedster you were probably hoping to see (Davante Adams), but don’t sleep on Marquez Valdes-Scantling. The wideout is a free agent as well and he may not return to Green Bay.

Valdes-Scantling was a bit up and down last year with the Packers, catching 26 balls for 430 yards and three touchdowns. While he looked fantastic running deep routes and catching bombs from Aaron Rodgers, there were drops that infuriated Rodgers.

That’s been an issue for Valdes-Scantling, but his speed is something that could really open up the field for the Ravens and Jackson. Valdes-Scantling also wouldn’t break the bank in free agency either, as he’d be relatively cheap.

Marquise Brown and Mark Andrews are Jackson’s go-to weapons and that won’t change next season. However, bringing in Valdes-Scantling on a cheap contract and letting him break free for big gains would be fun to see. We’ll see if Baltimore ends up calling his agent next month.
