Ravens not expected to pick up Matt Elam's fifth-year option
Baltimore Ravens strong safety Matt Elam is not expected to have his fifth-year team option exercised for 2017.
Not only would it be a "surprise" if they did, ESPN Ravens reporter Jamison Hensley calls Elam the "biggest first-round bust" in team history. Elam hasn't shown an ability to cover or tackle and missed all of 2015 with a torn biceps.
