Ravens have needs

After last season, it is obvious that the Ravens have some glaring needs. Ozzie Newsome finally came out and addressed specific needs. He said that the Ravens are looking to add a complementary receiver, depth in the secondary, and strength on the offensive line.

Obviously we already knew these needs, but it was nice to hear it straight from the general manager himself. I found it interesting that he talked about bringing in a complementary receiver and did not rule out a veteran. The Ravens have done this before from the likes of Anquan Boldin and Steve Smith Sr. It seems like the team really believes Breshad Perriman can develop into the #1 option.

It is going to be busy off-season for the Ravens. They will have to make decisions on players like Brandon Williams in free agency.
