The Ravens entered the NFL free agency process with the top rushing attack in the NFL from last season, but Eric DeCosta made upgrades, swapping out Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins for Derrick Henry.
Henry has rushed for 9,502 yards since entering the NFL, first among running backs since the 2016 season.
Baltimore will enter training camp with Henry, Justice Hill, an injured Keaton Mitchell (ACL), and Owen Wright.
Henry will be in Baltimore for at least two seasons, but the Ravens do an excellent job planning for the future. During his predraft media session last week, GM Eric DeCosta confirmed that the squad would likely draft a running back on Day 2 or beyond.
With the draft just nine days away, we’re looking at 10+ running back prospects who could interest Baltimore in the mid-to-late rounds.

The hard-running Guerendo spent five years at Wisconsin before transferring to Louisville and finally having a breakout season.
Guerendo rushed for 810 yards during his final collegiate season and then jumped on the radar after running a 4.33-second 40-yard dash at the combine.

During his final season in Knoxville, Wright logged 1,013 yards and four touchdowns in 12 games.

In 11 games last season at USC, Lloyd logged 820 yards,and scored 9 touchdowns, while averaging 7.1 yards per carry. The plus for Lloyd is that he can flourish in the passing game, something that’s not a strength of Derrick Henry.
