Steve Smith Sr., Breshad Perriman, Michael Campanaro, Kamar Aiken, Marlon Brown, Darren Waller

This group was the most difficult to predict because there is little chance that more than six players make the team, but there are seven or eight guys who deserve it. The first four names should be locks, but it is up in the air after that because the Ravens have a lot of talent at receiver.

The one name that I struggled with is Brown because it was hard to leave off Jeremy Butler, who has enjoyed a terrific offseason. Brown has been battling injuries for the majority of training camp, but it is hard to imagine the coaching staff giving up on the 6-foot-5 receiver, especially since Trestman is fond of taller receivers.

Could the Ravens keep seven receivers and Butler makes the team? It is possible. The Ravens have had seven at some point in each of the last two seasons. That opens the door for a few other players in the mix. DeAndre Carter has impressed in his opportunities and is a prime candidate for the practice squad. Aldrick Robinson has seen time with the Washington Redskins in the past. Cam Worthy should find a home somewhere in the league.
