Kamar Aiken

Aiken is coming off of a breakout season in 2015, but has not produced those same numbers. He caught for almost 1,000 yards and had five touchdowns last season. The addition of Mike Wallace and the return of Steve Smith have pushed Aiken to the side. His production has dropped off completely. He has logged only 171 receiving yards through 9 games this season and he is an unrestricted free agent after this season.

In my opinion I have just have not seen enough from Aiken this season. His production from last season came because of all the injuries. He was the only legitimate option that the Ravens had at receiver. Breshad Perriman has seemed to emerged as the 3rd receiver and has potential to be a #1 receiver in the future.

Similar to the return situation, the Ravens still have Michael Campanaro and Keenan Reynolds on their roster. Campanaro showed some production while playing in the slot last season before injuries occurred and it is too early to see what the Ravens will get from Reynolds. Rookie Chris Moore has also showed some flashes of potential this season. This would be a tough decision for the Ravens to move on, but Aiken is not producing the numbers that they expected him to.
