Michael Crabtree, who led the NFL in dropped passes in 2018, has been cut by the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens are really only left with two receivers with any kind of experience, Willie Snead and Chris Moore. John Brown is an undrafted free agent and Jordan Lasley hasn’t proven himself yet.
The Ravens wide receiver position makes the decision to cut Crabtree a bold one. The Ravens shifted from being a pass first offense to a run based unit when Lamar Jackson took the quarterback job; but they still need to prioritize the wide receiver position. If Jackson is going to improve as a passer, he has to be given the weapons that can fuel that growth.
