Ravens GM Eric DeCosta called Ja’Kobi Lane a “ball of clay with a lot of upside,” but the rookie is already looking more like a finished product after stacking highlight catches throughout training camp. The 80th overall pick caught 3-of-3 targets for 38 yards and a touchdown against Philadelphia, while PlayerProfilers prospect metrics highlight the size and athletic profile that made Lane a coveted Day 2 selection.
More important, Lane has earned the trust of Lamar Jackson and first year OC Declan Doyle, creating a clear path to an every down role behind Zay Flowers. Lane is pushing himself into the Ravens’ WR2 conversation, and his connection with Jackson makes him one of the most interesting rookie receiver bets in Baltimore.
