The one obvious fantasy player on the Raven's roster is Willis McGahee. Last season McGahee had 1207 yds rushing and 7 TDs. MaGahee will be a first or second round pick in every fantasy league around the country. After McGahee, which Ravens provide that fantasy impact?
Depending on the rules of your league, you may need a single defensive player in addition to a defensive unit. The Raven's defense as a whole is a good unit to fill the spot. With help at corner this year in the form of Fabian Washington the team will be more stingy then they were last season. As a solo player, look for Ray Lewis who had 121 tackles and 2 sacks last season, Terrell Suggs who had 78 tackles and 5 sacks, or if you're hoping for interceptions Ed Reed who had 7 interceptions for 130 return yards.
If Todd Heap is healthy, he has to be considered one of the top five fantasy tight ends in football. Heap ranks as one of the top receiving tight ends along with Kellen Winslow Jr., Tony Gonzalez, Antonio Gates, and Jason Witten.
If your league is weighted toward the number of receptions, Derrick Mason would actually one of your better receivers. He had 103 receptions of 1087 yards last season, but only scored five TDs. After Mason, the Ravens other receivers don't warrant a draft selection. Keep an eye on Mark Clayton and Demetrius Williams throughout the season because they could turn heads if they're healthy.
Finally, the Ravens don't boast a QB worth drafting. With the uncertainty at the position, don't even waste you time looking at Raven's QBs for your team unless you're in a 16 team league.
