For the near future, Derrick Henry plans to stay with the Ravens of Baltimore. In addition, Tom The Goat voted for Lamar Jackson as MVP. But on a lower note, here is a Ravens player who could be a reduction in surprise alignment in the offseason of the 2025 NFL.
The ravens season in 2024 ended with a heartbreaking defeat against the Buffalo Bills during the divisional round of the playoffs. There are still great hopes for 2025, but the second Kyle Van Noy cannot take advantage of it.
Van Noy in the second round in the draft of the 2014 NFL, Van Noy finished his first Pro Bowl season. He cashed 12.5 bags, easily the best season to date for the 33 -year -old man. It seems that he has something left in the tank.
Would the ravens cut bait with LB Kyle van NOY?
Of course, it is not a question of talent or production. Everything comes to the list of numbers and ceiling numbers. Van Noy would cost Ravens $ 6.1 million in 2025. It would accumulate $ 1.6 million in dead silver if the ravens cut it.
Another option would be that the Ravens extend its contract, distributing part of the ceiling struck in 2026. However, it will soon be 34 years old, and any extension after next season seems risky.
RAVENS certainly always like Van Noy, as evidenced by the comments of coach John Harbaugh in Baltimoreravens.com before the eliminatory match against the Bills.

Well, Kyle is … obviously, the bags speak in a way for themselves, “said Harbaugh. “But that’s not just that. There are so many situations where there are a kind of unknown aspects of a room that many of our guys have done. He was the same guy. Sometimes he will be in a position where a quarter-Arrière cannot escape. And someone else will wrap and get the bag or hurry on a race and force the race to an assist. Or bounce them back to a database as it is supposed to do.
“I just think he is playing good football. (And) I think it really reflects the whole defense. I mean, everyone really focuses on doing their jobs in a really physical way and a real disciplined way. This is what everyone really tries to do. Kyle is also a great leader in this way. He leads. He talks about the guys and a lot of experience this way, as in the playoffs. Thus, he spoke to the guys to play football with a disciplined (and) disciplined high effort. »»
The Ravens seemed to improve as the season progressed in 2024, and Van Noy mixed in the middle. If the ravens do not bring it back in 2025, this creates potential weakness to the position. But again, this is something that Ravens must soon be tackled because of his age.
It is quite possible that the Ravens leave Van Noy and try to replace him in the project. They could try to splash and exchange to acquire Shemar Stewart from Texas A&M. This could consolidate the group of seconds for the coming years.
Pro Football Focus said Stewart had an imposing size, even according to NFL standards. In addition, it has high -level explosiveness for its size. And its speed to the power supply can be dominant.
Ravens should probably go up six or seven places to get this type of talent. But it is logical to target a defender with the offensive always put to hover with Lamar Jackson at the controls.
