FILE - Baltimore Ravens offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley (79) reacts to first half injury against the Pittsburgh Steelers during an NFL football game, Sunday, Nov. 1, 2020, in Baltimore. DeCosta feels the Ravens have generally been pretty conservative in the draft when it comes to injuries. That's a relevant issue after a decimated Baltimore team dropped six straight at the end of last season to miss the playoffs. The Ravens will certainly hope for better luck in 2022.
