The Ravens announced a 17-member undrafted rookie class Friday, including six wide receivers and five linebackers.

After trading top wide receiver Marquise "Hollywood" Brown during the first round, Baltimore did not draft a wide receiver with one of its 11 draft picks. The Ravens also released wide receiver Miles Boykin prior to the draft. While the Ravens still have quality depth at the position, there could be an open spot on the 53-man roster.
