Top 100 Baltimore Ravens:

Marlon Humphrey

How can you not include one of the top cornerbacks in the entire NFL on this list? What Marlon Humphrey does to opposing wide receivers isn’t fair. They go t Humphrey’s side and end up on the side of milk cartons asking where they went.

Simply put, Humphrey is the definition of a lockdown corner and if he talked as much as others like Jalen Ramsey he might be more recognized. That should change in 2019 when his interceptions numbers rise.

Justin Tucker

The best kicker in NFL history has to be a lock for the top 100 players in the NFL. The Baltimore Ravens have seen plenty of good kickers come to Charm City, but none have been as talented as Tucker.

There’s few kickers, if any, more reliable that Tucker and can win you games entirely by himself. The Ravens are beyond lucky to have the leg of Tucker to keep them in games, and it’s his consistency and clutch traits that should easily peg him as a top 100 player in the NFL.

Ronnie Stanley

I’m sick and tired of Ronnie Stanley being pushed aside when talking about the best young tackles in the league. If I hear someone brag about Larmey Tunsil one more time I’m gonna scream… How about we give some love to the guy who’s been far more consistent?

Stanley may not be elite just yet, but he plays as well as any other offensive tackle. Stanley is now entering his fourth year in the league and will soon be paid like he’s the best tackle in the game. He’ll be worth every penny of his new contract, as it’s hard to find the stability that Stanley provides at left tackle.

Marshal Yanda

Good ‘ole reliable. Marshal Yanda is a slam-dunk for the Pro Football Hall of Fame when he decides to hang up the cleats. Yanda is a mean S.O.B. In the trenches and will put your butt in the dirt every chance he gets. You don’t move Yanda off his spot; he moves you into the second level before you can blink.

If not for Yanda, Baltimore’s offensive line would continually be one of the worst units in the league. But, thanks to his presence he makes everyone around him better. Yanda is a true leader and remains an elite player into his mid-30s. There should be no argument for him not to be in the NFL’s Top 100 players.

Lamar Jackson

Maybe this will come as a surprise to some, but when you lead your team to the playoffs behind a 6-1 record as a seven-game starter you deserve to be praised. Lamar Jackson did just that and then some for the Baltimore Ravens in 2019.

Call him gimmicky all you want, but the dude can play ball. Behind his athleticism and underrated arm talent, Jackson looks to become one of the best young quarterbacks in the league. As he continues to improve as a passer, and believe me he is doing just that, he’ll get more recognition for the right reasons.

Doubt him all you want, haters. Lamar Jackson is here to prove everyone wrong, and he’s already off to a great start. With the resume he turned in as a rookie, leaving him out of the NFL’s Top 100 players list would be an absolute disgrace.
