Pro Football Focus is considered a great resource for grading players on a snap by snap basis. They recently released their rankings of the top 5 players at each position, and there are some Ravens prominently ranked:

It is not surprising that any of these players placed in the top 5, as we all watched them on a game to game basis. It is slightly surprising that Will Hill III is the #1 coverage safety though.

Surprisingly, neither inside linebacker made the top 5:
