The Baltimore Ravens are opening the gates of the Under Armour Performance Center today for the official full-team start of training camp. The veterans are set to report today and the Ravens are going to begin the laborious process of figuring out their 53-man roster.

That means it’s time for us to do the same. With training camp starting today, I went through the 91-man roster to figure out who I’d keep. Not only am I predicting the 53-man roster, but I’m also breaking down the depth chart as well. While injuries and unplanned things will eventually happen, I’m making decisions as if they were due today.

I’ve already done the offensive depth chart and portion of the 53-man roster, so visit that to check out the complete team.

Defensive line (6):

Brandon Williams, Michael Pierce, Willie Henry, Chris Wormley, Zach Sieler, Gerald Willis, Daylon Mack

The defensive line is one of the deeper groups Baltimore has. Already having a wealth of talent there, the Ravens grabbed two more players in fifth-round pick Daylon Mack and undrafted free agent Gerald Willis. That puts the pressure on a few players to make splashes at training camp.

But as I see it, the top of the depth chart is pretty well figured out. Williams, Pierce and Henry are all locks to make the team. As the only listed defensive end on the roster, Wormley is all but locked in as well though it’s his job to lose in my opinion.

I have Sieler making the cut over Patrick Ricard. Though Ricard plays fullback as well, Baltimore has a few players who can fill that role and really needs someone who shines on the defensive line primarily. Sieler gave plenty of flashes last year and I expect him to take the next step this year.

I think both Mack and Willis make the cut as big guys in the middle who can hopefully either swallow up double teams or can knife through to generate a little quarterback pressure. I see them as the eventual heirs to guys like Henry and Pierce.
