The Baltimore Ravens Suddenly Linked To Savvy Veteran For Their Defense
In an article by Bleacher Report’s Scouting Department:
Add Now:Â Edge Yannick Ngakoue
The Ravens’ current roster holes are ones we are used to seeing from the franchise.
They’ve had success finding edge-rushers in late free agency. Jadeveon Clowney was a late free-agent signing last season, and he ended up being their best edge-rusher.
Yannick Ngakoue could have a similar impact as a late signing this year. The 29-year-old doesn’t offer much help against the run, but he’s still an effective pass-rush specialist. Bringing him in would alleviate the pressure on David Ojabo and Odafe Oweh to have breakout seasons.

The Ravens have a long lasting identity of having a dominant defense. Having an MVP caliber quarterback in Lamar Jackson only solidifies their championship pedigree.
The Ravens haven’t won the Super Bowl since the 2012 season, could a few pieces on defense and another big season from QB1 be enough to finally get them back to the big dance?
