Top Five Baltimore Raven Players to Watch Tomorrow
Football is finally back and us Ravens fans are blessed to get to watch our guys play first at the Hall of Fame game in Canton Ohio. Here are our top five players to watch tomorrow.
1. Lamar Jackson; Jackson as we all know is a speedy quarterback with great elusiveness skills. He had more rushing yards last year in college than Saquon Barkley. The Ravens has said he will play tomorrow and we’re not just excited to see him run with the ball, but are excited to see him throw the ball as well in his first professional game.
2 Hayden Hurst. Hurst was the Ravens first pick in this years draft, and Hurst was the first tight-end drafted as well. Hurst is a big body similar to Rob Gronkowski. Hurst hopes to show off his hands, blocking abilities and speed Thursday night.
3.Mark Andrews. Andrews was selected in the third round of this years draft from Oklahoma University. Andrews also plays tight-end, but isn’t getting the media attention since Hurst was a first round pick. Coaches have said Andrews has great hands and want to use him in the offense as much as they can for a dual tight-end threat.
4. Jordan Lasley Wide Receiver. Lasley was drafted in the fifth round of this years draft and a lot of coaches have said great things about him in his development. Scouts said Lasley could’ve been drafted higher, but had an off-field incident last year that cost Lasley a three game suspension. The Ravens hope to keep a good mind set with him, and hope to have found a late round gem.
5. Tim Williams. Williams was a third round pick in the 2016 draft, who contributed 6 tackles all year and was deactivated because he fell down the depth chart.
Williams now has had a full season to learn playbooks and has worked hard all offseason, and has impressed a lot of coaches. Williams could be a starter week one if he continues to have an impressive pre-season and training camp.
