Ravens Explore Trades for Defensive Players

The Baltimore Ravens are actively seeking to bolster their struggling secondary ahead of the NFL trade deadline on November 5. Among the potential targets are Arizona Cardinals safety Budda Baker, a six-time Pro Bowler, and recently released cornerback Troy Hill, who could provide depth without costing draft capital. The Ravens' pass defense currently ranks 31st in the NFL, prompting speculation about whether they will part with significant assets for a player like Baker. Additionally, edge rusher Za'Darius Smith is generating trade interest, with the Ravens and Chargers seen as potential suitors. Smith, who previously played for Baltimore, could enhance the pass rush, which remains strong despite an overall defensive liability. The Ravens are expected to explore multiple options to address their defensive challenges in the coming weeks.
