Nolan Carroll

There is no doubt that the Eagles were bad last season, including their defense. Nolan Carroll was a cornerback who did not have a great season in 2016 and was under constant criticism of Eagles fans.

No he is not a #1 cornerback, but the Ravens do not need him to be one. At his age, the team needs serviceable #2 and #3 cornerbacks who can play along Jimmy Smith.

It has been reported that the Eagles have been in contract talks with Carroll to try to keep him around, but there’s a chance it could fall through. We saw this before with Elvis Dumervil and the fax mishap. If Carroll decides to take a shot at free agency, I think the Ravens should give him a chance. He is already 30 years old and his 2016 salary with the Eagles was only around $2 million. The Ravens could get him at a cheap price.
