Ravens Watch: Baltimore Ranked Top 10 Most Complete Team

Mandatory minicamps are starting and we're starting so see rosters take shape across the NFL landscape. With that in mind, NFL.com ranked what it considers to be the top 10 most complete rosters in the league as of today.

The NFL Draft is behind us, and for the most part, free-agent signings are too, although there are still a few big names out there still looking for homes.

Mandatory minicamps are starting and we're starting so see rosters take shape across the NFL landscape. With that in mind, NFL.com ranked what it considers to be the top 10 most complete rosters in the league as of today.

The Ravens didn't make the top 5 but they do come in at  No. 7, and NFL.com has some high praise.

The most notable roster situation with the Ravens according to NFL.com? The signing of quarterback Lamar Jackson.

"The Ravens’ fortunes changed dramatically with Lamar Jackson’s new contract. If you lump in the signing of Odell Beckham Jr., along with a typically sound Ravens draft class, it was a darned good April for the franchise."

The new receivers room should see a boost from new offensive coordinator Todd Monken too, as NFL.com likes the additions.

"Jackson and a reimagined receiver room, along with a new offensive coordinator, could help return the Ravens to prominence on that side of the ball. If the three biggest new additions at wideout (OBJ, Zay Flowers and Nelson Agholor) or the healthy return of Rashod Bateman don’t help things, then we’re fresh out of solutions there."

The only place NFL.com thinks the Ravens still need help is on defense. And rightfully so. This could be a dangerously thin defensive line, especially at defensive tackle and corner.

"Defensively, however, Baltimore still might have a few boxes to check. The biggest could be at corner, where there’s Marlon Humphrey and a lot of question marks. Who is the other outside starter? Who is the slot? Signing Rock Ya-Sin helps, and the Ravens could always bring back Marcus Peters or Kyle Fuller, but more is needed, I believe.

"They could be set at defensive tackle with Justin Madubuike, Broderick Washington, Michael Pierce and Travis Jones as the top four, but one more body would be nice. Off the edge, there’s still hope of either Odafe Oweh or David Ojabo (or both) emerging alongside Tyus Bowser, but perhaps they will be open to a Justin Houston type of addition before camp."

Teams ahead of Baltimore in the NFL.com rankings include 1. Philadelphia, 2. Kansas City, 3. San Francisco, 4. Cincinnati, 5. Dallas, and 6. Buffalo. 

The teams just behind the Ravens in the top 10 are 8. New York Jets, 9. Seattle and 10. Los Angeles Chargers.
