Here are three players that could surprise some people and make some noise for the Baltimore Ravens in 2017.

As OTAs start up in the NFL, we get a chance to see draft picks, undrafted free agents and other younger players get a chance to show off their talents. These team activities are optional and most of the time veterans choose to wait until training camp to return.

The Baltimore Ravens have some intriguing young players. Whether it is a second year player or guy that’s been buried in the depth chart, the start of a new season yields new opportunities. We will see some of these guys who haven’t had much of a chance to play become candidates to possibly start or see increased playing time this season.
