Offensive Line:

  1. Ronnie Stanley
  2. James Hurst
  3. Matt Skura
  4. Marshal Yanda
  5. Orlando Brown Jr.
  6. Alex Lewis

Here is why:

The Ravens are most likely going to keep eight offensive linemen, so that makes the six players listed above safe from the roster bubble. With the exception of Orlando Brown Jr., these are the players that have proven themselves in a Ravens uniform. James Hurst went from an awful offensive tackle to a solid guard who can kick out and hold his own at right tackle. Matt Skura went from an unknown commodity to the player who could start at center in 2018. When the Ravens lost Alex Lewis for the 2017 season it was a real blow. John Harbaugh and company will be glad to have him back.

This leaves Bradley Bozeman, Jermaine Eluemunor, Nico Siragusa and Greg Senat on the roster bubble. Remember this is not a prediction of the 53 man roster. This is a look at the players who have roster spots secured already. It’s a safe bet that Bozeman and Siragusa will be on the team in 2018 but it isn’t a lock. We haven’t seen either of them in action in the NFL. Of the roster bubble players, Eluemunor and Senat are the most likely players to miss the cut.

The Ravens offensive line is really deep. The Ravens have 10 players with a legitimate shot at making the team. This is an area where a tough decision is just inevitable. The Ravens guard depth is insane and the fact that the Ravens have three viable options for the right tackle spot is just insane.
