Ravens New WR Room Could Mean 'Shocking' Cuts at Camp

After years of a sub-par receiving corps, Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta went all-in to help maintain the happiness of quarterback Lamar Jackson.

The Baltimore Ravens had one of the most if not the most eventful offseason in the NFL this year. After years of a sub-par receiving corps, general manager Eric DeCosta went all-in to help maintain the happiness of quarterback Lamar Jackson.

DeCosta and the Ravens added free agent wideouts Nelson Agholor and Odell Beckham Jr. to the roster before the NFL Draft in late April. On draft day, Baltimore re-signed Jackson to a long-term deal and added Boston College receiver Zay Flowers in the first round.

But with these new additions, existing receivers are wondering what their new, collective roles will be. ... and there might be some "shocks'' in here.

Wideouts James Prosche or Tylan Wallace could become expendable this season. The two were drafted back-to-back in 2020 and 2021 on the heels of Jackson's NFL MVP season in 2019.

But both could be considered disappointments so far during their collective NFL tenures. Wallace has compiled just six catches for 56 yards while contributing mostly on special teams. And injuries have hampered the Oklahoma State Cowboys as he missed eight games last season.

Proche looked to be catching on in his second season with 16 catches for 202 yards but regressed last year with only eight grabs for 62 yards.

Baltimore lost pass catchers Demarcus Robinson, DeSean Jackson and Sammy Watkins - all of whom outperformed Wallace and Proche - but were all replaced by better talent with Agholor, Beckham Jr. and Flowers.

The top five on the receiver depth chart should be Bateman, Beckham Jr., Flowers, Duvernay and Agholor, which means Wallace and Proche are most likely the odd men out.
