We are just nine days away from the Baltimore Ravens preseason opener against the New Orleans Saints. The Ravens are projected to be one of the better teams in the AFC this season, but if they are going to be as good as advertised, there a handful of players who will need to take their games to the next level.

Some of the players on this list have seen limited action in meaningful games, while others have gotten their reps due to the ‘Next Man Up’ approach, which head coach John Harbaugh and his squad love to preach.

Each and every year, there is typically a player on the team who comes out of nowhere and surprises everyone by putting together a really impressive season. Last season, it was running back Justin Forsett. Who will it be for the Ravens this season?

Let’s take a look at the five possible candidates to break out for Baltimore in the 2015-16 season.
