Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we maintain and update our existing Top 50 lists annually. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2024 revision of our top 50 Baltimore Ravens.
As for all of our top 50 players in football, we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Football League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.
Last year, the Ravens went 12-5, made the playoffs, but were bounced in the second round. Despite the season's success and the franchise's relative brevity, there were no new entrants, but multiple elevations in the top 50.
As always, we present our top five, which has seen a change in that ranking.
1. Ray Lewis
2. Ed Reed
3. Jonathan Ogden
4. Terrell Suggs
5. Lamar Jackson
You can find the entire list here.
Jackson moved up to #5 from #6 after another phenomenal season.
Of note, Kicker Justin Tucker, who was waived after the season, was unable to move from #9.
Cornerback Marlon Humphrey climbed to #14 from #21.
Tackle Ronnie Stanley also moved up seven spots. He is now ranked #19.
Linebacker Roquan Smith, who was chosen for his third straight First Team All-American, rocketed from #41 to #27.
Tight End Mark Andrews went to #30 from #32.
Defensive Tackle Nnamdi Madubuike, who went to the Pro Bowl last season, shot to #31 from #43.

Last year, the Ravens again made it to the playoffs and boasted the league MVP in Lamar Jackson. They did not make it to the Super Bowl, but there was significant movement with two new names and five elevations.
As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:
1. Ray Lewis
2. Ed Reed
3. Jonathan Ogden
4. Terrell Suggs
5. Marshal Yanda
You can find the entire list here.
Quarterback Lamar Jackson, who added his second MVP, moves up to #6 from #10. With another good year, Jackson should be able to overtake Yanda to enter the top five.
Cornerback Marlon Humphrey edged up two spots to #21.
Offensive Tackle Ronnie Stanley moved up to #26 from #38.
Tight End Mark Andrews rose to #32 from #35.
The first debut is Linebacker Roquan Smith, arguably the best defensive player on the Ravens roster going into 2024. He has not been with Baltimore for long but has already had two First Team All-Pros as a Raven. He debuts at #41.
Now with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Cornerback Patrick Queen reached #42 from #46.
The second new entrant is Defensive Tackle Justin Madubuike, who was a Pro Bowl Selection for the first time comes in at #43.
Please note that Kicker Justin Tucker remains at #9.
We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
2024 Pre-Season Rank #137, 2023 Pre-Season Rank #123. Peak Period 2017-18/2022-24
Ronnie Stanley has been with the Ravens for eight seasons, and in 2019, he was largely regarded as the top Tackle in the sport. Injuries caused him to miss a plethora of contests in the two years after, but he kept striving to get back to peak condition, and last year, he was healthy again, and rightfully earned his first Pro Bowl since ’19.
Stanley has to remain healthy to get back into the HOF mix that he was in five years ago.

Selected sixth overall in the 2016 NFL Draft out of Notre Dame—the first offensive lineman off the board—Ronnie Stanley was tasked with stepping directly into the starting left tackle role for Baltimore. While draft-day comparisons to past legends created high expectations, Stanley steadily answered the bell, proving to be a reliable blindside pass protector for nearly a decade.
Stanley blends smooth lateral footwork with long arms to execute a traditional pass-blocking method. Instead of brute strength, he uses patient, controlled kick-slides to create a wide boundary, forcing edge rushers to take long arcs around the pocket. His fast recovery lets him handle inside counter moves, and his fluid movement in space makes him a strong pulling blocker in Baltimore's heavy-option running schemes.
Stanley entered the lineup right away as a rookie in 2016, starting 12 games and demonstrating strong pass-blocking skills. He further developed those skills over the next two seasons, starting 15 games in 2017 and 2018, and played a key role on the line during Lamar Jackson's rookie breakout late in the season.
His career peaked in 2019 when he served as the main blindside protector for Jackson's MVP season. Stanley allowed only half a sack throughout the year and contributed to the league’s highest-scoring offense. That year, he earned his first Pro Bowl nod and was named a First-Team All-Pro, solidifying his reputation as one of the top left tackles in the NFL.
Adversity struck shortly after signing a long-term contract extension in 2020. A severe ankle injury limited him to just six games that autumn and sidelined him for nearly all of the 2021 season. Stanley mounted a long, arduous comeback, returning to play 11 games in 2022 and 13 in 2023, gradually working his way back to form.
His perseverance paid off with a standout 2024 season. Stanley started all 17 regular-season games for the first time, allowing only two sacks and contributing to a dynamic offense. His rebound performance earned him his second Pro Bowl selection. Before the 2025 season, he re-signed with Baltimore on a multi-year deal, starting another 16 games and reaffirming his role as Baltimore's long-term protector.
He enters this season with 120 games started, and has a lot more left.
