Cleveland, by the way, seemed to hold up very well in his first career start. I don’t know how long left guard Ben Powers will be out. He was in a walking boot on the sideline. However, the Ravens know by now what they have in Powers. They need to find out what they have in Cleveland, the rookie third-round pick, and Sunday provided positive information.
While we’re at it, David Sharpe certainly presented himself well after entering at right tackle in place of an injured Tyre Phillips. I imagine we’ll see more of Sharpe going forward, but it’s fair to question why we haven’t seen more of him sooner, given the Ravens’ struggles at tackle.
