  1. Ravens Sign Brandon Carr

    purpletide replied to ALSKAN RAVEN FAN's topic in Ravens Talk

    Just keeps getting better and better

    Takes BPA to another level.

    I think Foster, Barnett, and Davis (hopefully overshadowed by Ross' 40) have the biggest chances at sliding to us. That's not to say it's a good chance, but I could see one falling a bit.

  4. Ravens Sign Brandon Carr

    purpletide replied to ALSKAN RAVEN FAN's topic in Ravens Talk

    Everyone has bad games (easy to happen against Odell it seems) but he's managed to remain a solid/average starter throughout his career as well as never missing/not starting in one. He'll do well or we let an early draft pick fill in.

  5. 2017 DB Thread

    purpletide replied to JoeyFlex5's topic in 2017 NFL Draft

    I'm not too sure it happens either. Now that we have Carr that's even more reason to go BPA, and I think we could get a good slider. If no one slides, that's when I think we go Humphrey, Tim Williams, or maybe trade back (could go Robinson or Lamp but I don't know where they're projected).

  6. Ravens sign S Tony Jefferson

    purpletide replied to rmw10's topic in Ravens Talk

    Yeah I saw that back when we signed him. He definitely made the right move lol.

  7. Ravens Sign Brandon Carr

    purpletide replied to ALSKAN RAVEN FAN's topic in Ravens Talk

    This is definitely the safer route, and I think it was the better move. No injury history, sure he's not the youngest guy, but he can hold down the position till we let them come in. Also easy to get out of if he can't perform.
  8. LOL seems like every year is a "building year" to them.

  9. Ravens Sign Brandon Carr

    purpletide replied to ALSKAN RAVEN FAN's topic in Ravens Talk

    That's why I like this move. I don't see us losing. We're still going to take an early CB, maybe even 2, so even if Carr becomes the next Wright we just don't take the second (or whenever he drops off) year and we start a rookie.

  11. 2017 DB Thread

    purpletide replied to JoeyFlex5's topic in 2017 NFL Draft

    I agree. Conley gets overshadowed by Malik Hooker and Lattimore despite being a good corner, and I don't know why Humphrey gets a bad rap, he'd fit us nicely.

  12. Ravens Sign Brandon Carr

    purpletide replied to ALSKAN RAVEN FAN's topic in Ravens Talk

    I think it's still a very big possibility that we grab two CBs in the draft.
  13. Keep in mind our lack of offensive identity last year. Hopefully (and it seems like) we're trying to go back to the run game, which many assume is the reason we cut Zuttah. It's still way too early to judge either way.

  14. Mock Drafts from the Media

    purpletide replied to RaineV1's topic in 2017 NFL Draft

    Plus I know I also joked about it but I figure I'll beat everyone to the punch. It was his friend that sold out Mr. Chicken not Tim himself. But besides that I think he could possibly be a Raven, that's of course relying on the board and having Barnett not slide.

    LOL that suits him well

    purpletide replied to Moderator 2's topic in Ravens Talk

    Yeah I think we have a lot to go to definitively say that we'll be throwing guys wherever we have needs but I think we'll work with what we got/get the best we can.

    Nice. I'm excited to see all the Brandon Chicken jokes.

  18. Another year of anaemic offense???

    purpletide replied to kjbmore's topic in Ravens Talk

    People are exercising the idea of James Conner in the later rounds (6th I think). Haven't seen much of him, but if he's got potential then it wouldn't be terrible if we didn't have to use an early round pick on him.

    purpletide replied to Moderator 2's topic in Ravens Talk

    I've heard of possibly making Jensen the center as a "mauler". Yeah it's way too early to count us out on anything, but it seems as though we're trying to get back to running the ball, in which I 100% support this new direction if so.

  20. 2017 DB Thread

    purpletide replied to JoeyFlex5's topic in 2017 NFL Draft

    Yeah not sure we'd be picking him up anyway

  21. Another year of anaemic offense???

    purpletide replied to kjbmore's topic in Ravens Talk

    And I've heard people say that Boyle could be switched to FB too. Not sure how I feel about that though.

    purpletide replied to Moderator 2's topic in Ravens Talk

    In Ozzie (& DeCosta) we trust

  23. Another year of anaemic offense???

    purpletide replied to kjbmore's topic in Ravens Talk

    and 4. Why are we already judging our pick ups from the perspective that our roster is only dependent on the draft now?

  24. Next Up: Ravens Free Agents--Who goes? Who stays?

    purpletide replied to Moderator 2's topic in Ravens Talk

    You think this makes us more likely to overpay someone if we're looking for someone that could get cut? I only say so because we might not want to leave empty handed after relying on no one else picking them up.

  25. Another year of anaemic offense???

    purpletide replied to kjbmore's topic in Ravens Talk

    The problem is we think he can become at the very least a decent QB if we just surround him with some guys. Nobody thinks he's Brady, but if we give him a good O-line and some guys to throw to I don't see him struggling near as much. A running game would help greatly, but that goes back to the O-line.
