As one of the hottest free agent names on the proverbial market, there are a number of teams, from reconstructions, who would like to sign the left shelf of the Baltimore ravens, Ronnie Stanley, S ‘He arrived on the free market.
On paper, it makes sense, right? When it is in good health, Stanley is one of the best plated on the left of the NFL and, in 2024, proved that by playing 98% of the shots of his team – 1089 – While starting the 17 regular season games. Although injuries can still occur, for the moment, it seems that Stanley can have a solid career in the future and would improve the offensive lines accordingly.
Such a team that should be in Stanley, according to Matt Bowen of ESPN, is the Ravens, because he thinks that it is still not the product of Notre Dame Better NFL adjustment.
“I like that Stanley-Signe with the Ravens after producing a high-end band in 2024 and played in each game, which answered certain questions of sustainability,” wrote Bowen. “At 6-6 and 310 pounds, Stanley can use his long frame to build a wall on the edge, and he equaled the 11th among the offensive plated with a victory rate in blocks of 92.5% in 2024. “”
Is Bowen correct? In a word, yes, but just because ravens like their guys do not mean that they can keep them, as GM Eric Decosta noted it during its after-season exit interview.

I think we had a few, but thinking about it, I think it was absolutely the right thing to do, and we saw our guys improve and improve and really dress in unit and in frost. We are aware that we have guys whose contracts are in place, and we will examine this and we will certainly have some discussions with the players. We will potentially seek to bring our guys back; We will examine the project; We will examine the free agency; We will overturn all the rocks to find as many good offensive line players as possible, and I think we have good young players in the team – they have shown it, “said Decosta, via Baltimoreravens.com.
“And one thing we have seen over the years with this position is that guys improve as they age and more established. They enter the weight room, they become stronger and play better, so this will be the case with the guys we have. We are fortunate to have very good coaches and good young players, but also, we realize that we are going to have – conservative – 10 or 11 choice of recovery this year, free agency, and always a chance to have offers signed offers With some of these guys.
