The Baltimore Ravens made significant moves in 2023 regarding free agency, and similar actions are expected this year.
Two of the Ravens’ players who are set to become free agents on March 11 are running backs J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards. In the 2023 season opener, Dobbins suffered an Achilles injury, and Edwards took over, delivering an impressive performance throughout the season. Edwards’ performance contributed to the Ravens reaching the AFC Championship game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Edwards ran for 810 yards on 198 carries, scoring 13 touchdowns this season.
Other notable players who will become free agents are linebacker Patrick Queen and defensive tackle Justin Madubuike. Queen and Madubike were both honored in the Pro Bowl after having their best seasons.
According to Over the Cap, the Ravens are currently ranked 20th in the NFL in terms of cap space. This indicates that significant roster changes will happen before the 2024 NFL Draft.
Here is a breakdown of players in the market to negotiate their future once the new league year begins in less than a month.

Potential Baltimore Ravens NFL Draft targets
USA Today: Darius Robinson, DE, Missouri
Michael Middlehurst-Schwartz writes: “Mike Macdonald’s departure isn’t the only change that the Ravens’ defense can expect, as defensive tackle Justin Madubuike, linebacker Patrick Queen and edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney are among the standouts who could head elsewhere in free agency. To reload the pass rush, Baltimore might want to take a close look at Robinson, a Senior Bowl standout with the size (6-5, 296 pounds) and massive wingspan to overwhelm blockers at the point of attack. “
Yahoo Sports: WR Keon Coleman, Florida State
Glenn Erby writes: “The Ravens could see a transition at wide receiver in the offseason so we opt for Keon Coleman to give Lamar Jackson another weapon.”
Bleacher Report: Penn State’s Chop Robinson
Matt Holder writes: “Robinson might have the best combination of get-off and bend in this draft class. He’s lightning-quick off the ball and very flexible in his lower body.”
CBS Sports: Missouri’s DL Darius Robinson
Chris Trapasso writes: “At 6-foot-5 and over 280 pounds, Robinson fits the classic Ravens outside pass rusher mold who can also kick inside. He wins up and down the line.”
