2. Jonathan Ogden

Jonathan Odgen will always hold a special place with the Baltimore Ravens. He was the very first pick of organization and turned out to be worth while. At 6’9″ and 345 pounds, Ogden was a brick wall on the offensive line. He was the protection for the quarterback’s blind side. He did this for. His durability was one of the most impressive things about him. Out of the 177 games he played, he started in 176. At a position where you are constantly hitting on every play, this kind of durability is something that teams dream of.

In 2013 Ogden was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame. He was the first Raven to spend his entire career with the team and get inducted. It is not something that is easy to get in; only the best of the best get in. For an organization, it is a major accomplishment.
