Elvis D is injured too. And they both are linebackers....We wish you would watch the same team as the rest of us.

apparently there's no such thing as improving or progressing to Ravens fans.

I didn't think I would ever say it but i'm looking forward to seeing Elam on the field. Webb looks like a moth around a light bulb. Carl Davis is just another whiff. I have to agree with you. Moth around light bulb, deer in the headlights with the reaction time of my grandmother. Yeah, Webb is no better at safety than he was at corner. Another old guy paid more than he was worth. Stanley can't get healthy, Kaufusi was a waste of a draft pick and those two added together equal Jalen Ramsey. Could we use him right now. If we had moved up, and traded the Stanley spot and Kaufusi spot, that was what Dallas wanted for the draft pick that would have gotten us Ramsey. We could have kept Monroe (he couldn't miss any more time than Stanley has), been no different on the line, but we would have added a pro bowl safety to go with Weddle. I was a straight up get Ramsey guy but accepted Stanley when he was producing. As it stands now, he is Eugene Monroe version II. "Stanley can't get healthy, Kaufusi was a waste of a draft pick" This is just wrong. Kaufusi isn't a waste of a pick if he hasn't played yet. Not everyone is an instant starter, even when healthy. But when a draft pick gets hurt in training camp as a rookie, you can't call it a waste. Objectively wrong. Sometimes you don't find out until year 2 or 3. And you can't PREDICT injuries. And on Stanley....Can't get healthy? It's only week 6, not week 16 and he may even play this week. It's not like 2 seasons worth of off and on. And lest you forget, he was dominant in his first 3 games. Besides that, Stanley had never missed a start in his football life prior to this injury. Ever! So it's not like there was a history or trend we had to look out for. Why would we pass on him? Again, you can't PREDICT injuries. "We could have kept Monroe (he couldn't miss any more time than Stanley has), been no different on the line, but we would have added a pro bowl safety to go with Weddle." No, we couldn't have. And, you forget, he retired after we cut him! So your saying keep someone who we didn't want, and didn't want to be with us, and can't play without marijuana for pain management, who wasn't living up to his contract, who even when he was healthy wasn't playing his best? He wasn't the future. Again, wrong, objectively. You draft the cornerstone left tackle of the future when he's there. You obviously don't see the forest beyond the trees. We finally have a draft that yields some immediate starts and people are already complaining.

Yea... It's called colorblindness. And if you would have bothered to read the article in your quote you would understand and hopefully wouldn't have made such an insensitive comment. Just because something doesn't affect YOU doesn't mean it isn't worth addressing. The NFL got tons of complaints because fans couldn't follow their team. The Jets vs Giants game ticked off a lot of fans (colorblindness is prominent in men, the majority of fans) because they couldn't tell who was who. Colorblind fans should be able to watch their team without confusion and this wasn't a problem until color rush. Good on the NFL for putting in the time to research this stuff after they realized they messed up

Yeah true but l don't know if l trust Camp doing punts and kick returns because he might fumble during the season and we can't have that. Their trying to phase out the kickoff...but they made a rule change that EVERYONE is exploiting, kicking off short of the goal line....causing more returns...Therefore we need someone competent back there...Whether or not that is Hester is a different question.

Love the Pees gifs.

Rick Wagner is not mediocre to average. Yes, he played poorly last season after coming off a Lis Franc like Jimmy. But the season before he was Ranked the TOP right tackle, 11th overall tackle by PFF. Your assessment of the market for RT is probably right, and that is fueled by that fact that this is the first season in many that there are no lefty starters at QB.

@crazyboutravens 1) Our head coach is a special teams coach. Of course they are talking about the return. 2) We were the #1 ranked special teams unit last year. Of course they want to follow that up. 3) Kickoffs and punts are not obsolete (yet), they are still part of the game, and therefore they must be practiced. 4) Field position matters. Giving your opponent a short field and slows them from getting points, and gives us a better chance of getting points on our next drive. Likewise, if we have a good return game, we can try get at least 3 on every drive because we have the best kicker in the game. 5) Muffed punts. Do I need to say more? We need players who can cleanly field the ball AND provide a spark. 6) 2012 Jacoby Jones says "Hey ,remember me?" ...the spark he provided on returns was invaluable to that team's success. Until they get rid of the return we cannot ignore it, and to suggest worrying about those things is not "important" is simply naive.
