Biggest post-draft questions for all 32 teams

AFC NORTH


Baltimore Ravens

How much will Lamar Jackson get on the field this season?
The Ravens made it clear Joe Flacco is the starting quarterback this year, but team officials have been vague on whether Jackson will see any game action. When Ravens offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg was the playcaller in Philadelphia, he devised special packages for Michael Vick when he wasn't the starter. There's no question the Ravens view their first-rounder as a quarterback. The uncertainty is how much everyone sees of Jackson, who has been described as a "unique talent" by team officials. -- Jamison Hensley


Cincinnati Bengals

Did the Bengals do enough to fix their offensive line?
Sure, they added LT Cordy Glenn and C Billy Price, but they didn't address the tackle position until the seventh round of the draft. That leaves holes on the right side of the line, and there is no sure starter penciled in at either right guard or right tackle. The Bengals didn't feel there were enough good tackles in this year's draft to reach for one, but that could remain a problem down the road. -- Katherine Terrell


Cleveland Browns

Will Baker Mayfield be able to learn and develop behind Tyrod Taylor, or will he be thrown into action as a rookie?
He'll start the season as the third quarterback on the roster, but he's a competitive guy who has made it clear he does not want or expect to sit. The Browns won't force Mayfield onto the field if they don't have to, but Hue Jackson also said he won't hold any player back. Mayfield could force the issue. -- Pat McManamon


Pittsburgh Steelers

What will the Steelers do now at inside linebacker?
A massive hole remains in the spot Ryan Shazier deftly commanded for four years, but the Steelers ignored the position in favor of two safeties in the first five rounds. They signed free agent Jon Bostic, who's more of a stopgap. Here's where it gets interesting, though: The Steelers navigated a weak linebacker class by getting versatile players who might be able to handle linebacker duties in third-down subpackages. "Those lines bleed together" in today's hybrid NFL, coach Mike Tomlin said. So perhaps first-round pick Terrell Edmunds will end up replacing Shazier, he just doesn't know it yet. -- Jeremy Fowler
When you win, say nothing. When you lose, say less.
