Looking strictly at the offense, [Russell Street Report’s Jared Pinder](https://russellstreetreport.com/2025/05/30/out-to-lunch/otl-dreaming-on-the-2025-ravens-offense/) made the case that the 2025 unit is the best in franchise history.
"We know how great the tandem of Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry is, but the depth in several areas is what makes me so confident," Pinder wrote. "Two of the more important pieces will be Zay Flowers and Isaiah Likely.
"Zay, at this point, is a true WR1 and no, you can't argue that. He is everything that Hollywood Brown was supposed to be and more, and he might be the most talented receiver drafted by the Ravens. As for Likely, he might be the most underrated offensive player in the NFL. The guy could be a TE1 with any other team right now, and I do believe he should be that over Mark Andrews at this point. Let Mark be the big red zone target, and let Likely be the number one weapon at TE."
Pinder also noted the addition of five-time Pro Bowl wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins
"When he is the third receiver on your depth chart – and maybe even the fifth option in the passing game – yeah, that's deep," Pinder wrote. "There are a lot of mouths to feed on offense, but Hopkins will get his targets. If he is great, this offense is basically unstoppable."
The Ravens also possess quality depth at running back with Justice Hill and Keaton Mitchell backing up Henry, and they have four members of last year's starting offensive line back, including Pro Bowlers Ronnie Stanley at left tackle and Tyler Linderbaum at center.
The defense, which arguably was the best in the league the second half of last season, is loaded as well and has no glaring weaknesses.
The Ravens are fully aware that they will ultimately be judged by what they do on the field, not how great they look on paper. They are highly motivated to get over the Super Bowl hump, as evidenced by the near perfect attendance at voluntary OTAs last week.
