It makes perfect sense that Baltimore’s first two additions this offseason were Campbell and Brockers. Campbell was named Pro Football Focus’ run defender of the year. Brockers is “one of the best run-stoppers in the National Football League,” according to Aaron Donald, a two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year.
The Ravens surprisingly became the NFL’s best defense in the final three months of 2019. Baltimore allowed the fewest points and yards during its season-ending 12-game win streak, but the Ravens understood they were talent-laden in the secondary and filled with overachievers up front.
