Baltimore is a team that has implemented an analytics department, and it shows with their 2013 NFL Draft selections of Matt Elam (Strong Safety) and Arthur Brown (Inside Linebacker), two players that should be cornerstones for the defense for the long term. Arthur Brown in particular meets a particular metric that has been a standard among the better ILBs in the league. The Baltimore Ravens scouting department has traditionally been one of the best in the league.
However, I want to focus the analytical study more on WR Aaron Mellette, who has been a favorite of some other analytical minds. He is also touted as having a good offseason. His pure production analytic scores are great, but his reliance and comparative analytics are both huge red flags. None of his comparative wide receivers have even made NFL rosters and they too have had good base production metrics. He does have the best opportunity of the comparatives to break the trend of not making an NFL roster, but the odds are against him making a long term impact. WR Aaron Mellette was a 7th round pick out of Elon by the Baltimore Ravens though, thus the miss here is of a minimal nature. With ILB Arthur Brown and SS Matt Elam on board, the Ravens fans will not have to worry much about Mellette failing to make a long term impact.
