For decades the Ravens defense was described in many different ways, none of which that were exactly inviting to an opposing offense. Bullies. Physical. Imposing. Intimidating. Teams knew that when they visited Baltimore, the plane ride home wasn’t going to be all that comfortable. But that hasn’t been the case for quite some time. Since the departures of Messrs. Lewis, Reed, Ngata and Suggs the Ravens have been missing dawgs. Enter Roquan Smith.
Roquan is a tackling machine. He plays fast. He’s a 3-down player. He’s a fierce competitor who diagnoses quickly and has the ability to make the players around him better.
