Linebackers

C.J. Mosley

Kamalei Correa

Patrick Onwuasor

Terrell Suggs

Tyus Bowser

Tim Williams

Matt Judon

Albert McClellan

One thing we know for sure is that C.J. Mosley will be starting on the inside. He’s developed into one of the best inside linebackers in the game. Who starts next to him is the question. The possibility of Zach Orr coming back is still up in the air. Assuming that doesn’t happen, Kamalei Correa should fill the void. I also think the Ravens keep Patrick Onwuasor for depth.

Terrell Suggs will lead the pass rush on one side and then there are a ton of younger options to go alongside him. The Ravens invested early picks on Tyus Bowser and Tim Williams so they will definitely be on the starting roster. How much playing time they will get is left to be determined. Williams has more talent, but he’s a one-dimensional player. He can rush the pass extremely well, but that’s about it. I see Dean Pees using him more in special packages.

My favorite to win the other starting spot is Matt Judon. He had an impressive rookie season with limited playing time and is due for a breakout season.
