Which veteran wide receiver(s) will Harbaugh covet in March?

To quickly summarize his history with retread WRs in Baltimore, there's a well-documented pattern. Harbaugh inherited 34-year-old Derrick Mason, who remained top dog until the Ravens imported 30-year-old Anquan Boldin. They also added Titan vet Jacoby Jones, who rewarded them with a historic playoff TD, and former Buffalo star Lee Evans, who rewarded them with a year of frustration.

After Boldin departed for San Francisco, Torrey Smith stepped up as WR1, but Baltimore still imported Steve Smith, who had plenty left in the tank at 35. After Pats castoff Kamar Aiken topped the stat sheet in 2015, the Ravens brought in longtime Steeler Mike Wallace, who could still bring the big-play juice at 30. Later veteran signings who contributed include Willie Snead, Michael Crabtree, Sammy Watkins, DeMarcus Robinson, and our old friend, Odell Beckham. The Ravens have also been the employer of last resort for dead-enders like Nelson Agholor and Dez Bryant.

With that history as background, who might be a fit for Harbaugh's new team , particularly as a complement to Malik Nabers and a reliable target for Jaxson Dart?
If Michael Pittman is cut

from the Colts, I think he vaults to the top of our targets.
DeAndre Hopkins?

I know he's on the backside of his career, but what he could teach Malik Nabers would be worth signing him!
I should have mentioned Hopkins among Baltimore's signings.  
He didn't produce big numbers, but it's clear that Harbaugh still values veteran savvy and a history of key plays.
Mike Evans  
would be interesting. He's the big target that would go nicely across from Nabers. Not sure how much he has left in the tank, but could be interesting at the right price.
Still can't believe he signed that bum WR Dionte Johnson TWICE

after frequent short-stint bounces around the league like a bad egg!! Let's hope he's gotten that kind of WR judgment far out of his system.

Baltimore Ravens (first stint)
On October 29, 2024, Johnson and a 2025 sixth-round pick were traded to the Baltimore Ravens for a 2025 fifth-round pick. On December 4, Eric DeCosta, the executive vice president and GM of the Ravens, announced that Johnson was suspended for one game due to conduct detrimental to the team. This suspension was caused by Johnson refusing to enter the Ravens’ Week 13 game against the Philadelphia Eagles, in which the Ravens lost 24–19.

On December 20, 2024, Johnson was waived by the Ravens.

Baltimore Ravens (second stint)
On January 15, 2025, Johnson was claimed by the Ravens.Johnson was not eligible to play the rest of the season and became a free agent after the Ravens' divisional round playoff loss to the Buffalo Bills.

You might want to look at Kansas City- JuJu Smith-Schuster, Tyquan Thorton, Hollywood Brown..

Other players will be released to add to the field..

Shame you didn't mention The Young Joka, just for effect. :-(
Not an answer I like, but Darius Slayton  
Blue Baas : 4:38 pm : link
his existing contract shouldn't guarantee him a starting spot after last season by any means, but he's basically uncuttable.
