The Ravens are the first NFL team to sign all of their draft picks prior to today’s opening of rookie camp – and that’s something that is a bit out of the norm for the club. None of the picks is a first round selection and clearly that helps. There’s usually not as much haggling with drafted players beyond the first round.
More than likely there was a greater sense of urgency with signing their first pick, Courtney Upshaw. Getting the former Crimson Tide linebacker in camp and taking as many reps as possible is critical to accelerating his developmental curve. They will need him to help lessen the blow of the Terrell Suggs Achilles injury.
Note: As more information becomes available we’ll drill down more on the details of these charts
