News: 2 days agoLane has been the buzz of Ravens training camp over the first couple weeks, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.

Spin: According to Mink, Lane is making highlight-reel catches on what feels like a daily basis, and even Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com said Saturday that in his 27 years of covering the team, Lane has had the best rookie training camp he's ever seen. While Lane is doing it all on the practice field, he'll need to replicate it during preseason action if he's going to keep surging for a role in three-wide sets alongside Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman. Third-round rookie Lane's top competition for snaps appears to be Devontez Walker and 2026 fourth-rounder Elijah Sarratt.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Lane was selected by the Ravens in the third round of April's draft. Lane is a tall, perimeter receiver with the biggest hands in this rookie class. He produced solid 43-525-12 and 49-745-4 receiving lines during his final two seasons at USC. Lane was rarely used in the intermediate area and struggled to produce after the catch (career 3.7 RAC is second worst in this class), but he has the frame and skill set to allow him plenty of pro potential. He'll battle the likes of Devontez Walker and fellow rookie Elijah Surratt for work behind Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman in Baltimore's low-volume pass offense. Lane's primary value is as dynasty stash.
