Ravens 53-man roster prediction following the rookie minicamp
The Baltimore Ravens are in Phase Three of their offseason workout program and will add 11 NFL Draft selections and 19 undrafted free agents to that training regimen. The current roster includes key veterans, new additions, and players battling for early positioning heading into OTAs scheduled for May 18-19, May 21, May 26-28, June 1-2, and June 4.

LaJohntay Wester will return punts, ensuring his roster spot. Tight end: 4 #80 Durham Smythe #85 Josh Cuevas #88 Matthew Hibner #89 Mark Andrews Comments: The Mark Andrews era will continue in Baltimore, after the Ravens agreed to terms on a three-year, $39. 3 million extension with the franchise's all-time leading catcher.
