10. Anquan Boldin

The Baltimore Ravens have so many great players in their 20 years in Baltimore that Anquan Boldin almost didn’t make the list. Think about that for a second, the Ravens have been that good. Boldin was a huge part of the Ravens Super Bowl victory over the San Francisco 49ers (ironically the team he now plays for). Boldin is a big bodied receiver that gave the Ravens toughness, heart and talent at the wide receiver position.

My favorite Boldin moment was one of his shortest gains. In the Super Bowl, Flacco audibled from a running play to a quick pass out to Boldin. He threw a perfect back shoulder pass and trusted that the big receiver would haul it in for the first down. That one play symbolized everything that Boldin was about. He was tough, dependable and clutch. Boldin was a spark plug for the Ravens offense, when they needed excitement he provided it.

As I said, there are so many amazing Ravens that this list was hard to make. Here are some honorable mentions, that drew my consideration for this list: Todd Heap, Jamal Lewis and Marshall Yanda.
