Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh, General Manager Eric DeCosta and Director of Player Personnel Joe Hortiz completed their annual Pre-Draft Press Conference on Wednesday. In Ravens fashion, not much was shared, as the team values secrecy and it’s been a “challenging” offseason. But, here are my takeaways from the afternoon.
The Lamar Jackson Stuff
We all knew the press conference was going to begin with questions pertaining to quarterback Lamar Jackson, who announced his trade request moments before Harbaugh took to the media circle during the NFL Owners meetings weeks prior. This was the first time the media’s had an opportunity to ask DeCosta about Jackson’s trade request.
