Lamar Jackson lead 6 Ravens on list of NFL's top 100 players

Lamar Jackson ranked seventh in Pro Football Network's list of the "Top 100 NFL Players of 2020" that also included five other Ravens.

The No. 1 ranked player was Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald, followed by Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, New England Patriots cornerback Stephon Gilmore, and Indianapolis Colts offensive lineman Quenton Nelson.

Here is a breakdown for the Ravens players with commentary by PFN's Ben Rolfe

No. 7. Quarterback Lamar Jackson

"After entering the league with a number of question marks about how his game will translate from college to the NFL, Jackson has taken the league by storm in the last year and a half as the Ravens starting quarterback While Pro Football Network’s Shane Tyler ranked Jackson eighth in his recent top-25 quarterback rankings, he also stated that “no quarterback graded higher than Jackson in 2019.”

No. 22 Left Tackle Ronnie Stanley

"Notre Dame has consistently produced NFL quality offensive lineman, and Ronnie Stanley continued that trend when he was selected with the sixth overall selection of the 2016 NFL Draft. Since then, Stanley has been an almost constant presence on the Baltimore Ravens’ offensive line."

No. 55 Cornerback Marcus Peters

"Marcus Peters has had a rollercoaster of a career. He is a supremely talented cornerback that has worn his welcome thin on two separate teams. Case in point, he had pick-sixes for both the Rams and Ravens last season. His ability to read the quarterback’s eyes and jump routes are second to none. Peters’ boom-or-bust play style has allowed him to lead the league with five interceptions returned for touchdowns since being drafted 18th overall in 2015."

No. 84 Running back Mark Ingram

"After New Orleans split up one of the league’s best one-two punches with Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram, the former Alabama All-American joined Baltimore’s backfield. Alongside the Raven’s sophomore signal-caller, Ingram joined forces with Lamar Jackson, Gus Edwards and Justice Hill to form one of the league’s most dynamic rushing attacks. Ingram set the tone for the Ravens campaign with a bang, rushing for 107 yards and two touchdowns in week one against the Miami Dolphins."

No. 81 Defensive Tackle Calais Campbell

"Campbell didn’t match his production from 2017 and 2018, but he still turned in a strong performance in 2019. The 12-year veteran recorded 56 combined tackles, 10 tackles for loss and 6.5 sacks. Campbell added a pair of pass deflections and a fumble recovery touchdown."

No. 92 Cornerback Marlon Humphrey

"In only three seasons in the NFL, Marlon Humphrey has already cemented himself as one of the league’s top corners. The former Baltimore Ravens’ first-rounder enjoyed a breakout season in 2019 that led to a Pro Bowl and first-team All-Pro nod."
