Baltimore Ravens QB Diego Pavia made it through the team's minicamp this weekend, and head coach Jesse Minter had a message for his new rookie quarterback. "So now he's in the door and it's like, 'show us what you can do,"' Minter said Saturday. "And just like all the undrafted rookies, that's what I would say. For us, we see it as an opportunity to bring a player in that could potentially be something, and that's really what this is for us."
Huddle Up: If you're thinking about Pavia and potential fantasy appeal, forget about it for now. He is behind Lamar Jackson, obviously, but veteran Tyler Huntley is the entrenched backup, and he knows the system well. Pavia will simply be challenging fellow UDFA Joe Fagnano from UConn for the No. 3 job, and the team could still bring in a veteran arm, if neither impresses.

Baltimore Ravens WR Ja'Kobi Lane was a pick that differed from public opinion, but general manager Eric DeCosta likes what he saw in the evaluation process, and Lane had a connection to a former Baltimore great. "Our board is our board. We do months of work, and sometimes our evaluations differ from public consensus. Lane is a big receiver -- 6'4", ran a 4.46, excellent at contested catches with great hands," DeCosta said. "He has a connection through Todd Heap. We think he can be a real weapon for Lamar, especially adding big-bodied jump-ball guys after losing some speed."
Huddle Up: The Ravens have Rashod Bateman, Zay Flowers and Tez Walker at the top of the depth chart, while holdover LaJohntay Wester and fellow rookie Elijah Sarratt will be battling Lane for the No. 4 job on the depth chart following the departures of DeAndre Hopkins and Tylan Wallace. Lane isn't likely to have an immediately fantasy role in most leagues from the jump, but he is a player worth monitoring, and he has some value in long-term keeper formats.

Baltimore Ravens TE Matthew Hibner was a player the organization really liked, and it made a rare move, trading up 21 spots to get him in the 2026 NFL Draft. "For (Hibner), we actually traded up 21 spots to get him. That's rare for us, but we saw great value," general manager Eric DeCosta said. "He's athletic and productive. We gave up a future sixth-round pick and felt it was worth it to move from the fifth to the fourth round."
Huddle Up: The team likes Hibner's athleticism and production, and hope he adds versatility to the new offense of coordinator Declan Doyle. He likely will be quickly brought along to fill the role of the departed Isaiah Likely and/or Charlie Kolar, working behind Mark Andrews. Don't go out and draft Hibner, but file his name away and watch him closely during training camp into the preseason.

Indiana WR Elijah Sarratt was selected by the Baltimore Ravens with the 115th overall selection in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Huddle Up: Sarratt should have a chance to compete for the No. 3 or No. 4 receiver job during training camp, so fantasy players can keep an eye on his status. He is unlikely to make a big impact during his rookie season and can be avoided in most leagues.

USC WR Ja'Kobi Lane was selected by the Baltimore Ravens with the 80th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Huddle Up: Lane will be Baltimore's latest attempt at finding a reliable No. 2 receiver to pair with Zay Flowers, and while success is far from a guarantee, Lane is in solid position to produce as a rookie. If he can take advantage of the opportunity, Lane could prove to be a steal as a a second-round pick in rookie drafts.

Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers had his fifth-year option exercised Thursday, April 23. He'll earn $28 million in 2027.
Huddle Up: Flowers delivered a 86-1,211-5 line and wound up being the WR7 in PPR leagues in a season Lamar Jackson missed significant time. He'll turn 26 in September and remains a great, low-end WR1 option in fantasy.
Posted 4/19/2026 1:01 am GMT
Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers believes the team will be healthier now that head coach John Harbaugh is with the New York Giants. "Full pads all the time," Flowers said. "However many practices in pads you can get, every single one. We're doing one-on-ones in Week 17. That's why we had a lot of injuries, because of how we practiced, how we went."
Huddle Up: Despite the criticism, Flowers had plenty of success last season, finishing seventh in the league with a career-high 1,211 receiving yards. He has established himself as a the No. 1 option in the Baltimore passing attack, and he should be in the WR2 mix for fantasy owners in 2026.

Missouri DE Zion Young is visiting with the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday, April 14, ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft, according to Commanding the Huddle's Ryan Fowler.

Baltimore Ravens TE Mark Andrews is expected to see "a lot of opportunities" in 2026 following the departure of TEs Isaiah Likely (Giants) and Charlie Kolar (Chargers) after the season. "I'm going to continue to get better and grow my game, and I think there's going to be a lot of opportunities in this offense," Andrews said.
Huddle Up: The deal did add Durham Smythe, and it is highly likely the team will add a rookie in the draft. However, Andrews is the unquestioned starter, and he will no longer have Likely breathing down his neck for touches. Andrews could be on the verge of a resurgence in 2026, perhaps back toward the top end of the TE1 list in fantasy football.

Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson was present for the first day of the offseason program Monday, April 6.
Huddle Up: This is a pivotal year for him and the organization. Now 29 and coming off a season of persistent hamstring injuries, he has something to prove. Does that outweigh the downside of losing some rushing potential in fantasy, though? His legs are what made him a perennial top-three option at the position, and as he nears 30, you have to wonder if he loses a step there soon. He's a top-five candidate in fantasy, but the position has strengthened to where you can take a younger option, like Drake Maye or Bo Nix last season, and do well.

Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson's attendance at the voluntary workouts is uncertain at this point, according to head coach Jesse Minter.
Huddle Up: Jackson will be learning a new offensive scheme but does not have to be at the workouts until minicamp. He is a weekly starting option in fantasy leagues when healthy.
Posted 3/11/2026 2:09 pm GMT
Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson restructured his contract Tuesday, March 10, while the team was working to acquire DE Maxx Crosby. Terms weren't disclosed. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the deal created $40 million in salary cap space.
Huddle Up: Jackson is a risky option you'll likely have to take in the top handful of options to acquire. Last year was a lost season due to hamstring issues. At 29, and in a new direction of the team, you have to wonder if his running will be scaled back. If that happens, his value drops to the upper-middle QB1 range.
Posted 3/02/2026 11:23 pm GMT
Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers is expected to have his fifth-year option exercised this offseason, according to ESPN.com's Dan Graziano.
Huddle Up: Flowers has been the main option in the passing game for the Ravens and should remain with the Ravens for the foreseeable future. He can be at least a No. 3 receiver in fantasy leagues next season.
Posted 2/24/2026 4:37 pm GMT
Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson is engaged in extension talks with the team, according to general manager Eric DeCosta.
Huddle Up: Jackson is a top-three option at the position in fantasy. He just turned 29, though, and soft-tissue injuries were a problem last season. If his running ability stalls at all, his fantasy value will take a hit. Keep that in mind when considering options at the position.
Posted 2/14/2026 7:24 pm GMT
Baltimore Ravens WR Devontez Walker has a chance to compete for the No. 3 receiver job next season since the team could lose multiple pass catchers this offseason, in the opinion of BaltimoreRavens.com's Clifton Brown.
Huddle Up: Walker played well at times this season but could be more involved in the passing game if the team does not add much at the position this offseason. Fantasy players can monitor his role during the offense because he could be a possible late round option in some deeper leagues.
Posted 2/08/2026 6:15 pm GMT
Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson is expected to have contract extension talks with the Ravens this offseason, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Tom Pelissero and Mike Garafolo.
Huddle Up: Jackson is scheduled to count $74.5 million against the salary cap next season, so an extension will benefit both sides if they can reach an agreement. He will be working in a new offensive system in 2026 but should be a No. 1 quarterback in fantasy leagues.
Posted 2/07/2026 2:57 am GMT
Baltimore Ravens RB Derrick Henry recorded his fourth season with at least 1,500 rushing yards, 15 rushing touchdowns and 5.0 yards per carry in 2025, and Jim Brown is the only other play with two such seasons.
Huddle Up: Age continues to be just a number for Henry, and he been an absolute force in his two seasons in Baltimore. At some point, he will have to slow down, but with his touchdown upside alone, another RB1 campaign could certainly be on tap for Henry in 2026.
Posted 1/24/2026 1:36 am GMT
Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers topped 60 receiving yards in 12 of his 17 games in 2025, and he scored five of his six total touchdowns over the final five games, averaging 88.8 receiving yards over that span.
Huddle Up: Flowers' third season yielded career highs in receptions, targets and yards, and his 1,211 receiving yards ranked seventh in the NFL. Flowers has become the clear No. 1 option in the Baltimore passing attack, and while he possesses big-play ability, he also provided a relatively stable floor this past season. The lack of touchdowns caps his ceiling a bit, but Flowers should be firmly in the WR2 mix in 2026.
Posted 1/17/2026 2:53 am GMT
Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson finished with career lows in both carries (67) and rushing yards (349) in 2025, and his two rushing touchdowns tied a career low.
Huddle Up: Yes, injuries limited Jackson to 13 games, but he played in just 12 games in both 2021 and 2022 but topped 700 rushing yards in both of those seasons. There is a chance that a fully healthy Jackson is back to his old self next season, but the drop in rushing production is something worth considering when deciding when to target Jackson in fantasy drafts.
Posted 1/05/2026 6:14 am GMT
Baltimore Ravens TE Mark Andrews had two receptions (on three targets) for 14 yards in Week 18 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Huddle Up: Fantasy owners kept waiting for Andrews to turn things around in 2025, but he never did, finishing the season on an eight-game scoreless streak during which he topped 40 yards just once. Based on his contract, Andrews will return to the Ravens next season. Whether we ever see the pre-2025 version again remains to be seen, however, making him a stretch as anything more than a speculative late-round target.
Posted 1/05/2026 5:45 am GMT
Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers caught four passes (on six targets) for 138 yards and a pair of touchdowns during the team's Week 18 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Huddle Up: A lengthy touchdown drought undermined Flowers for a good chunk of 2025, but he closed strong, racking up 444 yards and 4 TDs in five December/January games. As of now, he's the only true impact player the Ravens have at receiver or tight end. We'll see if that's still the case in nine months. Flowers heads toward 2026 as a decent WR2 with potential for more.
Posted 1/05/2026 5:22 am GMT
Baltimore Ravens RB Derrick Henry carried the ball 20 times for 126 yards versus the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 18. Henry was targeted once as a receiver but did not have a catch.
Huddle Up: One of these days, Father Time is going to catch up to Henry, who turned 31 on Sunday. After he closed the season with four straight games of 100 yards or more, however, it's unclear when that will be as Henry continues to defy the conventional wisdom that running backs over the age of 30 have little left in the tank. Barring some development to recalibrate expectations, Henry should enter next season as a possible top-10 fantasy back.
Posted 1/05/2026 5:07 am GMT
Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson completed 11 of 18 passes for 238 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception in Week 18 versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. Jackson also ran four times for nine yards.
Huddle Up: The No. 1 order of business for Jackson, who turns 29 in three days, is to get fully healthy and then figure out a plan to stay that way after the veteran saw a variety of ailments conspire to limit him to 13 games -- he also left two other games prematurely due to injury. The big question for 2026 is whether Jackson, who has missed significant time in three of the last five seasons, will continue to be as aggressive running the football after he rushed for a career-low 349 yards. Without the running, Jackson's fantasy outlook could look dramatically different.
Posted 1/04/2026 5:17 pm GMT
The Baltimore Ravens may restructure QB Lamar Jackson's contract during the upcoming offseason in order to free up salary cap space and appear likely to discuss a contract extension, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Huddle Up: Both sides were unsuccessful at finalizing an extension last summer but it appears as though Baltimore is committed to keeping him for years to come. Despite missing four games this season due to back and hamstring injuries, Jackson should continue to be viewed as a midrange QB1 option in all fantasy leagues when he is healthy.
Posted 1/02/2026 10:40 pm GMT
Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (back) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 2, and is not on the injury report for Week 18.
Huddle Up: Jackson will be returning to the lineup after missing some time because of the back injury. He played well against the Pittsburgh Steelers earlier in the season and can be a low-end No. 1 quarterback in leagues this week.
Posted 1/02/2026 10:31 pm GMT
Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman (illness) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 2, and is listed as questionable for Week 18.
Huddle Up: Bateman may be a game-time decision this week, so fantasy players can check the inactive list for his status. He has not been a big part of the passing game this season and can be avoided in leagues even if he is active.
Posted 1/02/2026 12:39 am GMT
Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman (illness) did not participate in practice Thursday, Jan. 1.
Huddle Up: Bateman still has a chance to play despite missing the first two practices because of an illness. Fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation over the next day or two. He will see a few targets if he plays but can be avoided in most leagues.
Posted 1/01/2026 6:45 pm GMT
Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (back) practiced in full on Thursday, Jan. 1.
Huddle Up: Jackson has practiced fully for two straight days, which indicates he will start for the Ravens. Jackson is still worthy of being a QB1 despite the injury.
