QB of future? Ravens considering drafting passer to develop behind Joe Flacco

OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- The Baltimore Ravens haven't drafted a quarterback in the first five rounds since selecting Joe Flacco in the first round 10 years ago.

That streak might be coming to an end this year with a deep quarterback class.

The Ravens are expected to discuss taking a quarterback, perhaps a future starter, to develop behind Flacco. The timing seems right considering Flacco turns 33 later this month and has dealt with serious injuries the past two seasons.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh called a question about whether Baltimore will draft a quarterback in 2018 a "fair" one.
