WR Kendrick Bourne, New England Patriots
The Ravens recently resigned Nelson Agholor to a one-year extension, which was a move that made a lot of sense for both sides. Agholor had a solid season for the Ravens and provided a veteran presence in a young receiver room (outside of Odell Beckham Jr). The Ravens could add yet another solid veteran to the room if they sign Bourne.
Bourne isn't the flashiest player, but he's a very consistent weapon and has a lot of experience playing in run-heavy offenses. Bourne spent four seasons with San Fransico to start his career, then spent the last three seasons with the Patriots.
The Baltimore Ravens might sign Kendrick Bourne
In 2023, Bourne accumulated 406 yards and four touchdowns in just eight games played (five starts). The Patriots passing offense was one of the worst in the entire league and featured some of the most pathetic quarterback play in the league as well. Bourne would represent another solid veteran presence for the Ravens, and he could be a safety blanket in the slot for Lamar Jackson to target.
Bourne would represent a much cheaper option than fellow free agent Beckham, who's expected to land a contract that likely exceeds eight figures. Bourne, on the other hand, is projected to be paid just $4.8 million per year. If the Ravens don't feel that they can shell out the money for OBJ, Bourne could be an intriguing option.
