The Ravens are in an interesting predicament; a luxury problem at tight end. Starting with two skilled veterans, Dennis Pitta and Benjamin Watson; while there are four up-and-coming players who have shown flashes: Maxx Williams, Crockett Gillmore, Nick Boyle and Darren Waller. What should Baltimore do?
Money is an important factor in this situation as always. Below I have listed each player’s cap hit and dead money if released before June 1, 2017.
