5. Brent Urban:

Brent Urban, have yourself a day! All offseason long we have been talking about guys like Chris Wormley and Bronson Kaufusi. You know who we’re talking about now, Brent Urban. Urban played ferociously and that’s an understatement. He had four tackles, a sack and two forced fumbles in the game. That’s a mightily impressive debut of the preseason.

The defense dominated and the most dominant player was Urban. He played great in both run defense and in the pass rush. He knocked offensive linemen off the line of scrimmage on a regular basis. What he did, was an awful lot of fun to watch. Urban has a ton of competition at the defensive end position. The Ravens seemingly have an endless line of talent up front for their defense. Urban showed why he got the first team reps at defensive end. The Ravens may finally be looking at the player they always knew Urban could be.
