Dean Pees has 'no doubt' that Ravens secondary will improve

The Ravens' secondary endured one of its roughest seasons in 2014, with its depth decimated by multiple injuries at cornerback.

Starters Jimmy Smith missed time with a Lisfranc foot sprain that required surgery and Lardarius Webb suffered from a lingering back injury. Cornerbacks Aaron Ross, Danny Gorrer, Asa Jackson and Tramain Jacobs all suffered season-ending injuries.

With the exception of Webb, all finished the season on injured reserve.

Although the defense finished eighth overall, (allowing 336.9 yards per game), fourth in rushing (88.3 yards allowed per game) and sixth in scoring defense (18.9 points per game), injuries were problematic as the Ravens finished 23rd in the NFL in pass defense.
