Here are three receivers currently on the Baltimore Ravens roster who could be x-factors this season.

After the Ravens made their last pick in the 2017 NFL draft, many people were left upset. The Ravens failed to select a wide receiver in the draft, passing up on some very good options. But there is a rhyme and reason for everything and the Ozzie Newsome and the front office are not stupid. They have a plan and know exactly what they are doing.

Instead of focusing on the receivers the Ravens don’t have, I take a look at ones they do have.  I think the reason for the lack of moves at receiver is because the team wants to give the receivers on the roster a shot to play.

As Mike Wallace said, do not sleep on these guys. Aside from Wallace and Breshad Perriman there are receivers that could make a big difference for the Ravens this season. I take a look a three potential x-factors on the receiver depth chart. These players have not seen much game time and have a lot of untapped potential. With increased roles this year, I think they can help Joe Flacco and the offense get over the hump.
