The Ravens had previously expressed interest in players like Jimmy Graham and Jarvis Landry. But they ended up with the Green Bay Packers and Cleveland Browns, respectively.
Crabtree was released by the Oakland Raiders on Thursday. He had a down year for the Raiders in 2017, catching 58 balls for 618 yards. Still, it’s worth noting that both totals would have been second on Baltimore, who had one of the worst passing offenses in the league in 2017.
The Ravens have taken some steps to upgrade their receivers by signing (possibly) Ryan Grant and John Brown. But even coming off of a bad year, Crabtree would be a step above both.
