Chance to re-sign:
From a pure counting stats viewpoint, Roberts didn’t do too much to wow the Ravens coaching staff last season. This apparent lack of production will not exactly help him stand out as a free agent. If he is keen to stay with the team and accept a similar deal to last season, then he could very well return to Baltimore for 2020. But the Ravens need to improve the talent at wide receiver, a fact made more evident by the teams’ struggles against the Tennessee Titans in the AFC Divisional round loss.
Miles Boykin is expected to take a step forward in 2020, and on paper, he profiles to play the role that Roberts had been fulfilling in 2019. This would lead to a decrease in opportunities for Roberts, and he wasn’t exactly getting a load to begin with.
Roberts may find the open market is not exactly full of overwhelming contract offers, and this allied to his familiarity with the Ravens may lead to his returning at a reasonable price. This might suit both parties, and as such, I put Roberts chances of being a Raven in 2020 at roughly 50%.
