WR Marquise Goodwin, San Francisco 49ers
We’ve already pointed out one type of receiver the Ravens could be interested in, now here’s the second. Goodwin is a speed demon, running a 4.27-second 40-yard dash back in 2013. And Goodwin’s stats certainly back up his big-play potential, posting no lower than a 14.9 yard-per-reception average in any season where he caught more than two passes.
Baltimore already has the speedy Marquise Brown, who was already ridiculously fast while admittedly not at 100%, but that doesn’t mean the Ravens aren’t in the market for some depth in that role. With Brown seeing several different injuries slow down his rookie season and fellow deep threat Chris Moore a pending free agent, Goodwin would be a great insurance policy for Baltimore.
Even if Brown stays healthy and lives up to his expectations as a first-round pick, having more speed on the field isn’t a bad thing given the Ravens’ unique offense. Much in the vein of the Kansas City Chiefs, having multiple ridiculously fast players on the field at once can tax a defense and open up quick-scoring opportunities with a quarterback like Lamar Jackson under center.
