For our last episode before our game by game analysis, the ReCAP crew discusses Ravens Rivalries. We go over our long standing rivals, some rivals of the past, and make some guesses who will be our rivals in the years to come as we enter the next chapter for the team. Join in on the discussion on this week’s Reddit post.

This was one of my favorite Marshal Yanda plays. Turned a possible third-and-1 from the 36 into a first down to set up Justin Tucker's game-winning field goal moments later in the "Mile High Miracle" game. #Ravenspic.twitter.com/r9fj2FQZsd
After taking some time to look over the new schedule, we analyze the Ravens first 17 game regular season schedule which is full of difficult matchups and odd scheduling choices.
Ryan Mink from the Ravens joins us to discuss the role players we are keeping an eye on this offseason who have a chance to make their breakout. While it is easy to get excited about the new shiny rookies, there are many young players on this team we once had similar hopes for that can still rise to the promise they showed in college.
We finally got it! An ice cold drink of water in a sports desert – the NFL Draft. The Ravens did not disappoint with one of their most interesting and important drafts. We discuss each pick and what they will bring to the Ravens as well as our overall impressions with how the Ravens did.
