The Ravens were quiet in free agency, but after signing DeAndre Hopkins and retaining Ronnie Stanley, Baltimore's offense has all the ingredients to make a deep playoff run while maintaining their reputation as the most explosive offense in the NFL.
Everything starts with quarterback Lamar Jackson, and the two-time MVP will again work to get his team deep into the playoffs and, most importantly, to a Super Bowl appearance. Even with the inactivity and loss of Brandon Stephens, Malik Harrison, Patrick Mekari, Josh Jones, and Chris Board, the team is still in the midst of a Super Bowl window and has 11 2025 NFL draft picks to help restock.
With the next wave of free agency underway, we're previewing every position, starting with the wide receiver spot, where Baltimore has nine players on the roster.
What's changed
Baltimore has three wide receivers from last season on the open market: Nelson Agholor, Deonte Harty, and Diontae Johnson. Steven Sims signed a one-year deal with the Seahawks. Those departures were offset by Tylon Wallace's re-signing and DeAndre Hopkins's signing a one-year contract to chase a Super Bowl and play with Lamar Jackson.
Tylan Wallace
Wallace becomes the third Ravens free agent to re-sign with the team, joining Ronnie Stanley and Patrick Ricard. A special-teams standout, Wallace returns after logging a career-high 11 receptions for 193 yards in 2024.
Devontez Walker
The rookie had one catch on three targets for a 21-yard touchdown over nine regular-season games in 2024. The former UNC star was a healthy scratch until his NFL debut in Week 7 against Tampa Bay. The highlight of his first year was a 21-yard touchdown reception against the Giants for his first NFL catch in Week 15. Most of Walker's work came on special teams, as he logged 153 snaps and 55 on offense. With the addition of Hopkins, Walker will enter 2025 as the No. 4 or No. 5 wideout at best.
Dayton Wade
Wade displayed big-play potential all last summer, including a 56-yard touchdown catch against the Falcons. With Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, and Nelson Agholor as the core three, Wade could not overtake Tylan Wallace, Deonte Harty, and Devontez Walker.
Wade caught 27 passes for 390 yards and two ...
