Sorry but I have never bought this garbage of letting a vet "Teach" a rookie, it rarely if ever actually happens like that, because honestly who wants to train their replacement? IMO unless you can land a Ray lewis, Kuchely,Willis, or another top player at ILB you can find talent much later, as evidenced by the many UDFA that have come to Baltimore and thrived at ILB ( scott, mcclain, bynes, ellerbe).

I personally feel bad for brown, I now wish he had gone to Houston or whoever else Baltimore traded in front to get. There is nothing more wasteful to me than drafting a potential impact rookie high and making or having them sit.

Still as disgusted with the pick this morning as I was yesterday. Injury concerns, lack of need for ILB at 17, etc. He is no patrick willis or Kuchely by a long shot and the ravens have and still have much bigger needs. When will Flacco be given some talented weapons? Will they wait till round 5-7 to draft junk WR's again ?

He would be the perfect compliment to brown, mcclain the run busting beast and brown the speedy coverage and blitzer.

But is he any good ? Shipley can play multiple positions but sucks, ravens need a quality center not just another ok multifaceted lineman

I just don't understand why these teams are passing on him, Monroe is much younger than both and truthfully as good and has less injury concerns.

and Honestly, if that is what it takes to keep Monroe, I hope Ozzie doesn't sign him for that. Can't have that many cap crippling contracts for a few players even though Monroe is great.

Well if the deal is correct, that's 11 million a year for Veldheer. What does Miami throw at Monroe? At this point I think the Ravens should make a play for Anthony Collins from Cincy

Does that set the floor for Monroe or the ceiling?

This leaves the Ravens open to targeting Jared Veldheer now, as he didn't get tagged by Oakland

likelehood of Monroe getting signed looks very slim now, unfortunatly it looks like the tag and about 12 million in cap space tied up for Monroe.

I was glad the dolphins overpaid ellerbe that way he wasn't resigned to a too lucrative deal in Baltimore

I have a bad feeling the ravens will over pay for Pitta. I'd really rather Monroe be signed

I think Bynes, Hamilton, Brown and maybe Doss are worth tendering. Levine and Trawick? no thanks and i really wouldn't want bynes except for the fact his salary is low.

$4.6 million saved in cap space, good but less than i expected.

Not when considering keeping a top tier LT. Pitta can walk all day.

What does a person need to withdraw and carry 50k in cash around for? I don't make 50k a year and wouldn't leave a dollar bill unattended. When i buy things that cost more than pocket change i use a debit/credit/cashiers check.

Defense ,defense . Washingtons sucks and so does Indy's

Fixed it for you :-)

Quite possibly one of the worst superbowls to watch If only the draft happened sooner

Obviously.....

Why are you holding a grudge ? The ravens won the Superbowl last year and its not like just denver punked Baltimore this year.I want manning to win and retire so ravens never have to play him again

Wilson is the ultimate game manager currently

Holding all day

Possibly but I think the RT has had most of the problems not LT
