At least Tucker is money if they can just get us in his range.
I guess Ozzie can bring in free agents Boldin and Mangold as stop gaps and go offense in next year's draft.

two picks away
Feeney gone. Lord have mercy.

That is what I am thinking.
Are you kidding me? Elflein is off the board.
there goes Kupp
Just now, ellicottraven said:Why not go Tim Williams with the first 3rd round pick? I'm all in on defense because we have no choice at this point anyway.
You may have a point.

Me too. I thought we had a shot in the third round.
I liked Dawkins as a guard. Kid is huge.

That is what my Steelers wife just said. Her brother also hates the pick. I guess Steeler fans know they are deep at WR and want other positions of need.

we would most definitely have to trade up that is for sure.

I would actually be ok with it in the third.

I had this guy as my #3 CB behind Sidney Jones (before he got injured) and Lattimore. This guy reminds me so much of a healthy Jimmy Smith and has no injury concerns at this moment. He has the athleticism and body to develop into a beast. Yes, he will have some growing pains, but the guy can make a tackle and will not back down from any WR in the NFL, unlike other CB's that were still on the board.
Pick is solid, but I'm getting VERY VERY concerned about our offense.
The talk of the town has been how we need to protect our NFL highest paid QB, how we need to improve our O line and how we need to get bigger and stronger in the trenches. So far the state of our O-line has gotten worse than it was last year.
EVEN IF we do manage to build up the line in the draft and by picking up some FAs and Flacco is kept upright in the pocket, he has almost no WRs to throw the ball to. Do not be mistaken, Perriman is not a proven starter until he is. And Wallace is 2nd WR at best. The rest of the group are just place holder at the moment. Even last year, when Flacco did get time to throw at times, more often than not he didn't have anyone open which resulted in dink-and-dunk plays and 3 and outs. And the situation has gotten worse with the departure of SSS.
I honestly don't know what the plan is here so I won't judge, but it'll require a 2nd and 3rd day of draft for the ages to give this offense a better shot than it did last year.
Lamp and Robinson are still on the board along with all the top Centers. Ozzie may still pick up Mangold if we miss out on day two on some quality o-lineman. As far as WR goes, JuJu and Zay are still on the board and Boldin is not signed yet. I will wait to see what Ozzie does, because I have confidence that we are not going into the season without adding a few guys in these positions of need. These three picks tonight could be awesome ones.
I don't understand why so many fans are down on this pick. I had this guy as my #3 CB behind Sidney Jones (before he got injured) and Lattimore. This guy reminds me so much of a healthy Jimmy Smith and has no injury concerns at this moment. He has the athleticism and body to develop into a beast. Yes he will have some growing pains, but the guy can make a tackle and will not let anyone intimidate him unlike other CB's that were still on the board. I really liked Allen and thought he was going to be our pick when he fell to us, but I am very okay with Humphrey.
Bills got a better corner at 27 than we did at 16. Sad
Respectfully disagree
We take the 2nd best CB in this year's draft (after Sidney Jones' injury) and Ravens fans are still complaining! Fans have been crying for CB help after seeing the Ravens blow numerous late 4th Qtr leads.....because of a weak secondary.....and now we have one of the NFL's best secondaries and still no love. (Even when we know about Jimmy Smith's durability issue).
Yes, we could have gone with one of the other 3 Alabama players still on the board but we do NOT need another DT or TE and Foster must have had some issues/red flags or he would not have lasted until the 31st pick.
These coaches look at thousands of hours of film and game tape, but obviously some fans know much more than the coaches. Send an email or give Owner Steve Bisciotti a phone call.....he may be hiring!
I agree with you. You can never have enough quality CB's and I also had him #3 just behind Sidney Jones (before his injury) and Lattimore.
Good night everyone. I enjoyed hanging with you all tonight. Hopefully we will get some great guys tomorrow. Go Ravens!!!!!!!!!!
