As the Baltimore Ravens aim to build on their 2024 success, free agency presents a crucial opportunity to strengthen their roster. From adding pass-rushing firepower to shoring up the offensive line, here are five key targets who could help Baltimore remain a top contender.

Baltimore’s 2024 offseason was focused on re-signing core players like Kyle Van Noy, Justin Madubuike, Malik Harrison, and Brent Urban, and their 2025 offseason will likely look pretty similar with GM Eric DeCosta believing that he has a championship-caliber core in-house. However, a guy like Malcolm Koonce could be a great addition if the Ravens can find additional cap space. Koonce turned in an excellent 2023 campaign with the Raiders before losing his entire 2024 season to a knee injury. Koonce was the 22nd ranked edge rusher at PFF in 2023, thanks to a strong second half of the season after the now departed Antonio Pierce took over.
2. Azeez Ojulari — EDGE, New York Giants
If an edge rusher like Koonce is out of their spending range, Azeez Ojulari seems like a solid fit at a much more reasonable price tag. Ojulari is a pass-rush specialist who has put together solid sack production on a limited snap count, which will keep him in the cost-controlled, short-term end of the free agency swimming pool.

The Ravens could also use a cost-effective, established cornerback this offseason. New York’s D.J. Reed has been a steady contributor for the past three seasons and ranked 31st among cornerbacks at PFF with a 70.1 coverage grade in 2024. The 28-year-old cornerback has finished each of his six seasons with a PFF overall grade north of 70 and could be a perfect fit for Baltimore’s secondary.
4. Noah Brown — WR, Washington Commanders
If Baltimore wants to add to their pass-catching corps, Noah Brown is a solid buy-low target. Brown was a solid complimentary piece for the Washington Commanders and has spent time in Dallas and Houston previously. Brown posted a 70.7 overall grade at PFF last season, which ranked 53rd among qualified wide receivers, catching 35 passes for 453 yards and a touchdown.
5. Mike Williams — WR, Pittsburgh Steelers
If Baltimore wants a wide receiver with some more upside who will likely fall into the same price range, they could pursue Mike Williams, who spent last season in Pittsburgh after being traded by the Jets following Aaron Rodgers’ disapproval of Williams. Before his ACL injury in 2023, Williams ranked 18th among all wide receivers in overall grades at PFF and could be a perfect one-year, buy-low rental for Baltimore.
