2. Sheldon Price

When training camp began I didn’t have Sheldon Price pegged as part of the final 53 man roster. The Ravens have always struggled to find good cornerbacks, and hopefully Price is somebody they can develop. Price has gotten better in each preseason game. This shows that he is somebody who can be coached up.

Before he was with the Ravens, Price had three seasons of little to no success with the Indianapolis Colts. He entered the preseason as a player who still hadn’t proven himself in the NFL. Price probably won’t see much time on the field for defense. He looks like a special teams player through and through.

You have to give the young defensive back credit. He was an underdog all throughout training camp. Now he has an opportunity to be part of the 2016 Ravens.
