Tight End (3)
Maxx Williams, Crockett Gillmore, Nick Boyle, Dennis Pitta (PUP)
This is one of the easier groups to predict now that it is official that Pitta will start the season on the PUP list. The move means that Pitta is out at least the first six weeks, and there is no word whether he will play at all.
The Ravens have kept three tight ends on the roster for the past seven years, and that will not change this season. Gillmore will start for Baltimore, but the two rookies have been impressive when they have been on the field this preseason.
There are two questions that will play themselves out as the season goes on. Will Pitta actually come back and how long before Williams takes over as the leading tight end?
