The Ravens drafted defensive lineman Brandon Williams in the third-round of the 2013 NFL Draft. With the intent that he could hopefully either team up with then Ravens defensive lineman Haloti Ngata as one of the more dominant defensive lines in the league or that he would take over for Ngata if the veteran were to retire or his salary got too hefty for the Ravens liking.
Enter 2015 and the Ravens shipped Haloti Ngata off to the Detroit Lions after he was unwilling to rework the final year on his contract, worth $16 million against the salary cap, and promoted Williams into the starting role.
