Story byGlenn Erby , Ravens WireTue, March 3, 2026 at 5:54 PM UTC·3 min readThe Ravens have undergone an offseason of change, including a new head coach, offensive coordinator, and defensive coordinator, as well as key personnel departing. While the franchise won't undergo a complete rebuild, there are going to be critical overhauls made at key positions, and Eric DeCosta should have plenty of draft capital to help reload. Baltimore has 22 unrestricted free agents, according to Over The Cap, with big names like Tyler Linderbaum, Isaiah Likely, Kyle Van Noy, Dre'Mont Jones, Alohi Gilman, Chidobe Awuzie, and Ar'Darius Washington among those Eric DeCosta will evaluate. A current look via Over The Cap shows the Ravens have $18,557,187 available and $12,262,715 in dead cap space, while the Titans, Chargers, and Raiders all have over $90 million in total cap space for March.
