There is a difference between predicting a losing season and disagreeing on one solitary pick. That said if his opinion or insider knowledge was that valuable please tell me what franchise is paying him for his insight

just as "bad" but they've avoided key injuries.

The FO even admitted after the draft that they'll have to start adjusting their board for CBs since they keep going earlier and earlier. It's the nature of there not being enough quality guys to go around.
Within reason. Which is why they went db in the 4th. You want to talk about just going after a db and that's why we are waiting for Elam to develop.
They targeted Ramsey and couldn't get them. You don't reach just to reach.
48 minutes ago, rmw10 said:I do still wish they'd step up and address the long-term need, though. Jimmy in 2011 has been our last really big investment at the position. Otherwise, it's been stop gaps and mid to late round rookies. At some point, we need to find someone that can be a fixture in the lineup. We've been entirely too passive at the position for my liking.
Think the desire was there with an attempt to go after Ramsey but taking an early round DB isn't going to happen just to take one.
Can't say Stanley because his impact should/will be unnoticed from the stand point that it will soften the loss of KO as long as Monroe is also healthy and productive.
Moore is the one I'm most excited about. If he fits like john brown for az then it really opens up the offense and keeps people honest for the underneath routes. I really like the big play threat of brown in az and would love to see that threat and opponents respect for Moore here. Numbers don't have to be astronomical but if he's on the field teams better respect the big play threat
Thought the goal was to get faster on offense
Not sure how you have steve smith above bouleware especially on a short time frame. Why no ngata or chris mccalister or yanda
Hope for Arthur brown but thinking someone else.
Az, Seattle, Washington and Los Angeles are teams that are using (or considering)
using a safety/lb hybrid http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000647142/article/jeff-fisher-nfl-to-see-more-hybrid-guys-like-barron and it really shouldn't surprise anyone to see that as an option in Baltimore considering how Pitt and cincy like to try and spread defenses out more

Like camp but not able to stay healthy and unless he's stellar on returns may not make the 53

Makes you wonder how a rookie feels when the FO brings in veteran competition at your position.
The rookie feels fine.
arrington should be nervous

Think the same. If the front gets no pressure on the qb then as a db you're spending lots of time playing chase with a wr.
I say that with the likes of seattles "playground" offense in mind. If the front doesn't get to Wilson DBs are forced to cover playground routes that on the surface look like they lack true discipline. A wr being able to improv is a threat to some of the best man cover DBs
