Pundit Says Malaki Starks and Mike Green Could Help Ravens Have NFL's Most Dominant Defense

NFL.com’s Jeffri Chadiha identified the most intriguing questions around the league as the first round of minicamps comes to a close.

The Ravens were the subject of one of the questions, specifically whether a youth movement will make their defense the most dominant in the NFL again.

"Baltimore has high hopes for its first two picks in this year's draft, as safety Malaki Starks and edge rusher Mike Green have the potential to help this defense immediately," Chadiha wrote. "The Ravens started slowly on that side of the football last season, as coverage mishaps and explosive passing plays marred the first half of the year until personnel changes and adjustments turned that unit into one of the league's best down the stretch. Defensive Coordinator Zach Orr already loves the chemistry that has developed between Starks and veteran safety Kyle Hamilton in offseason workouts. Like Hamilton, Starks is versatile and has a nose for the football, so the expectation is that he'll learn fast.
