The Ravens have become the second AFC North team to announce their class of undrafted free agents. After having a unusually low six picks in the draft, Baltimore has a large contingent of UDFAs this year. Here is the full list:
- FB/DT Levi Bell (Texas State)
- DT Trey Botts (Colorado State-Pueblo)
- DT Kaieem Ceasar (Ohio)
- WR Dontay Demus Jr. (Maryland)
- G Tykeem Doss (Southern Mississippi)
- QB Nolan Henderson (Delaware)
- G Jake Guidone (UConn)
- OLB Malik Hamm (Lafayette)
- T Brandon Kipper (Oregon State)
- CB Jeremy Lucien (Vanderbilt)
- G Tashawn Manning (Kentucky)
- CB Corey Mayfield Jr. (UTSA)
- RB Keaton Mitchell (East Carolina)
- WR Sean Ryan (Rutgers)
- OLB Kelle Sanders (Alabama-Birmingham)
- TE Travis Vokolek (Nebarska)
- TE Brian Walker (Shepherd)
- RB Owen Wright (Monmouth)
The last time the Ravens drafted a quarterback who played at Delaware was Joe Flacco in 2008. The latter helped lead the team to a Super Bowl title, but the same will certainly not be expected of Henderson, who had a career-best 3,231 passing yards and 32 touchdowns last season. The Ravens’ backup and third-string signal-callers (Tyler Huntley and Anthony Brown) both joined the team as UDFAs, so Henderson could have a path to at least a practice squad spot.
Mitchell – the son of former Ravens safety Anthony Mitchell – had a highly productive college career. He saw his yards per carry mark increase in each of his three seasons, and his 7.2 mark in 2022 led the AAC. The 5-9, 188-pounder recorded 1,704 scrimmage yards and 15 total touchdowns last season, but the each of the Ravens’ top three running backs from 2022 are on the books for the coming campaign. That should limit Mitchell’s opportunities to make the 53-man roster.
Demus showed potential at times during his Maryland career, but also missed action due to injuries. His best season came in 2019 (41 catches, 625 yards, six touchdowns), and he totaled 2,008 yards and 14 scores overall. The Ravens have made a number of high-profile moves at the WR position this offseason, but a back-of-the-roster spot could be available if Demus (or Ryan) stand out during the summer.
