This is the most unlikely of the three on the list because Abraham has a history of off-the-field problems. He was arrested for a DUI last offseason and was charged with an assault on a former business associate this offseason after punching him in the face at a club. You would expect better judgment from a 37-year-old who has been in the league for 15 seasons.
What you cannot deny is that Abraham is a force on the edge. He has 133.5 sacks in his career and is still getting it done at his age. He recorded 11.5 sacks two years ago with the Arizona Cardinals before missing most of last season with a concussion.
You take the good with the bad if you bring in Abraham. He contemplated retirement following his concussion last year, but has said that he thinks he has another season of football in him. The Ravens could look passed his personal problems and give him an opportunity to make up for the loss of Suggs.
