The Baltimore Ravens have a busy offseason ahead of them. With the franchise tag window now closed, general manager Ozzie Newsome needs to find a way of keeping their most important free agents while building on their strong roster.

According to Over The Cap, the Ravens currently sit $4.13 million under the salary cap. They will be aiming to reach a long-term extension to Haloti Ngata, who is set to account for $16 million of 2015’s cap number. If they can’t negotiate a deal, they may release him to save money.

The future of cornerback Lardarius Webb is equally uncertain. Newsome will be hoping his contract can be restructured to push money out onto future years.

Without much room to maneuver, they will need to put a lot of focus onto the draft which kicks off in Chicago on April 30.
