I think Elam will shine in camp, and like he said make or break for him....

Next man up.....BP take your time rehabbing, and come back when your knee is 100% sound, until then your teammates mates and this fan has your back.....

Seriously?? You just mentioned A group of undrafted unproven wrs. How did it work out last year?? well Klay was a very good returner, Mathews played well with limited snaps and was a SB stud for Seattle, and Butler has shown a lot of game........So having said that, they have proven more than Perriman since they have played in NFL games....Our top 4 now should be Wallace,Smith,Aiken, and Moore...With 2-3 spots open for Butelr, Mathews, Brown and Camp and Reynolds to fight for......

Still think this opens the door for Matthews. great size and Brown both 6-5..Then you have Butler and Klay, still a nice WR corp....

Oz did a good job covering his butt with the Wallace signing, and Moore pick....

A year on the PS would do him well.....

You call Gronk a TE, but he is N.E top receiver who had 72 catches with a 16.3 avg, next was Edleman with a 11.3 avg, with 61 catches....Our offense should have WR's leading in receptions and with our deep threats they should lead the team in avg yards per....Now as true TE's i think the bunch we have across the board is the best, we have Gilmore who has shown he can block and catch, Maxx who is like Pitta a pass catching security blanket for Flacco, Watson who obliviously showed he can be counted on to catch those 3rd and 5 passes....I don't want our TE's being the pass catching threat like Gronk, our WR's should be, but our TE's are very capable of being counted on to catch balls if thrown their way......JMO....

Nothing wrong with Trent having that Ali mentality, as being the greatest....:)

Forsett has been doubted his entire career, and with this crop of RB's we have, he is being doubted again....I hope he shines in camp and wins the job, but the talent we have at that position is so deep with potential....IMO i think this will be his last year, and i also think a talented back will find his way on IR before the season starts, so we protect him for next year....JMO...

wasn't to long ago when Webb took down Peyton Hillis in in the open field, he has always been fearless when it comes to tackling....

I think all those close games we lost which we could have won, is really the difference between success and failure.....Had it gone our way in all those close games, the attitude would probably be a lot different.....Having said that, 5-11 set us up for drafting pretty insane talent, and always picking high in each round.....11 picks, and i think 11 UDFA, and the UDFA class isn't to shabby....With all this youth, we just reloaded, and have the potential to be good for the next 2-4 years......

I could easily see Brooks drop down as a rover back/LBer in some exotic packages, if Dean will take the leash off the defense, and let them do what they are capable of doing, and that is being a attacking defense, and not a defensive defense....Bring the noise, let the guys do what they are capable of doing....

Proud of the Team, and very proud of my son who serves in the Military....

No worries Timmy, you just be Timmy, and when your career is over let the up and coming rookies model their game after yours....

In a year or two i really think Dixon could be a RR clone, as far as talent,,,,And i think he runs a wheel route better than RR, as RR basically was the bubble screen guy...:) heck with it, i love all 90 players, and wiah the rosters could expand to 90....)

Sticking with Judon, Henry, and Dixon, aside from the top 3 picks as making consistent plays for us.....Just wish one of them would be a ILBer, still curious to see if we sign a vet or go through OTA's to see if AB, or Orr has made a big enough jump to be comfortable going into the season with...

With Monroe coming off recent surgery i don't think it's a big issue, as other vets skip these, plus whether he stays or goes really is out of his hands, if he is healthy we could use him, if the FO feel Stanley is ready they can cut him June 1st and i think gain 6 mil in cap space....

His issue will be more mental than physical, and that causes hesitation....we will see soon enough though...

I said Dixon had RR traits as far as running between the tackles, and being a excellent receiver out of the backfield...But it would do him good to be a 3rd down back, and watch and learn from Forsett.....Forsett is aa great mentor, and he can gain so much knowledge from him....JMO...

No one knows how the upcoming season is going to turn out, but no one can deny that FO drafted and signed players who are capable of starting, and that every player who is left from last years team has to earn their spot on the team,,,Only a few untouchable players, but the rest of the positions IMO are up for grabs, as they should be......I like this mentality, lets get back the Raverns swagger, and be that team everyone hates to play......

This makes the Stanley pick look genius......

Whats cool about this is after the game, he found the kid and gave him some of his gear, makes me a fan of his big time.....

The more Guards we sign and have on the roster kind of tells me the team wants Stanley to our LT from the get go, and the Urschel,Wesley, Ducasse, Lewism and Jensen fiGHT for the LG spot...jMO

none of these latest signings are really written in stone, as who we deem better players get cut, we might scoop up......And that will probably all through training camp......To me by stocking up with players for basically every position, it is making a clear statement that you better earn your place on the team, regardless if your a veteran or not.....

My picks for players who will make a impact are....Top 3 picks,then Judon, Dixon(who i feel fits the RR mode)..2nd year players Z.Smith, and Carl Davis...Young has a good shot due to the gigantic chip on shoulder, and has that attitude and swag that players who play like a Raven have...Henry and Moore could be pleasant surprises...JMO....
