Which Ravens will have over 1,000 receiving yards?

@SoullessSaint predicts: Andrews and Hollywood will both break 1000 yards this year.

Verdict: Sell

I think Brown gets over 1,000 yards. He will climb into the status of elite wide receivers and with his speed he may not need as many receptions as most would to get that kind of yardage. I don’t see Andrews breaking 1,000 yards. I see double digit touchdowns for him and 60-70 receptions for him. I just don’t know that this offense is going to give you two 1,000 yard receiving performances. Andrews will have very similar numbers as last year. If the Ravens spread the ball out to more receiving options, his numbers won’t escalate that high.

@FitCoachBruce predicts: Ravens repeat as AFC North Champs and #1 seed by way of defeating the Chiefs at M&T Bank Stadium during season. Lamar repeats as MVP and Hollywood Brown finishes among top receivers in league with 10+ TD receptions. #Booyah

Verdict: Buy

This is a very reasonable prediction. It’s no secret that the Ravens are good. It’s almost not even a bold prediction. Jackson is only going to get better. The AFC North is good, but the Ravens are better. Baltimore has come close to beating the Chiefs in the past two years and this will be their best opportunity to get that done. Brown had seven touchdowns last year so that’s not a hard jump to make, in year two. I see nothing here to doubt.

@edthehead84 predicts:  ” REALLY BOLD PREDICTION”

  1. .Judon is traded
  2.  Jaylon Ferguson will have a break out yr (Seven sacks, three forced fumbles, five tackles for a loss).
  3. Wide receiver group will go from the bottom league to top 5
  4. Captain LJ will switch things up this yr, from a runner to a great passer
  5. Yannick & Ravens ? (OK, this is my bias guess)
  6. Super Bowl

Verdict: Sell most of that

I don’t think Judon is going to be traded. Furthermore I think Yannick to the Ravens is an idea that we can forget about at this point. Ed, you and I have been talking about this all offseason, so I know how you feel. Before I continue, I do want to thank you. As usual, you got us on a good thing to have a football conversation about. I think Judon is a better player than he gets credit for and I think the Ravens feel the same way.

I don’t think the wide receiver position climbs to a top five group. Do I believe Brown will get to that level? Absolutely. The thing is that we’re talking about a receiver position with two rookies, two second year players and Willie Snead. The receiver group will be better. I personally believe Devin Duvernay is going to be a difference maker. Top five is a bit too bold.

5 Ravens most likely to take a jump up in 2020. light. Related Story

I already think Jackson is an elite passer. He did better than any quarterback against the blitz and did the best in the red zone last year. He had 36 touchdown passes and a passer rating of 113.3. I do buy that he improves, but I don’t think he changes from a great runner to a great passer. He is already awesome at both things.

Here is what I do buy. I do think the Ravens will win the Super Bowl. I also believe that stat projection for Jaylon Ferguson is spot on. I’ve always been high on him. He’s got the traits and in his second season it will be much more evident.
