WHERE DO THE NEWEST RAVENS FIT?

By Joe Platania

With the 2012 NFL Draft in the rear-view mirror, Ravens Report now projects the following line of succession on the Ravens' depth chart.

These listings do not include players that are still on the free-agent list and are unattached to any team, such as tight end Kris Wilson and center/guard Andre Gurode.

Despite the fact that none of them have yet signed, some of the Ravens' eight draft picks and 21 undrafted free agents are listed here in order to give perspective as to the relative depth -- or lack of it -- at certain positions.

With organized team activities and a mandatory minicamp still ahead this offseason -- the rookie minicamp begins May 11 -- this chart is subject to change many times over.
