  1. I don't even know the guy but I feel sorry for Julian Wilson but maybe he can get his shot with the team next season
  2. Yup went to The Falcons
  3. We shall see but the guy fell to sixth round for a reason. All he has to do is prove people wrong and hopefully he does. Torrey may not have been super quick but he definitely has more quickness to his game than Waller. It's important for a receiver to have some quickness to their game especially for those that want to run all the routes but hey there has been big receivers in this league that aren't great route runners and still turn out to be successful.
  4. Harb tends to think if you able to impress on special teams then you should be able to do well on defense and offense. I honestly really don't have a problem with a first round player playing on special teams. I think they should start only if they earn it and just like their confidence can be potentially crushed due to sitting on the bench it can happen while playing on the field especially if they playing bad. So allowing them to start right off the bat comes with some negatives as well especially if you a cornerback in this passing league.
  5. What possess me to say these things because I did research on him. When he participated in East West Shrine game and was asked to run more advance routes it was mention that he struggled to get open. According to rotoworld.com sources said "We bet some teams look to make Waller a "move" tight end, meaning he could see a lot of time in the slot. Do not expect Waller to wow with quickness or agility or quickness. He looks laborious in his breaks and does not create separation that way. However, Waller plays to his strengths and will use his length/power to get off the line and his frame or length to make contested catches. He can definitely get vertical with long speed and ball tracking." When I watch games of him it's kinda hard to judge him on his quickness because he wasn't asked to run variety of routes when he was at Georgia Tech. It seems more like he was asked to run deep, curls, or comebacks routes but at the same time corner backs tend to give him alot of space because most opposing corners were concerned with stopping the run .When judging a receiver qujckness/agility I tend to look at there 3 cone drill . Waller 3 cone was a 7.07 seconds, his 20 yard shuttle was 4.25 and his 60 yard shuttle was 11:35 seconds. Waller has better hands and more physical than Torrey that's for sure but no way he has the same burst as Torrey. Waller has built up speed and doesn't have the same burst as Torrey.
  6. That's a bold prediction for a receiver that's coming from a run option offensive scheme. Darren Walker is pretty raw as receiver even more raw than Torrey when we drafted him in the second round and atleast Torrey was playing in more of a NFL style offense when came out of college. One of the mean reasons why people think Waller may be better suited at tight end because he isn't agile, quick, and is stiff .
  7. Yeah but he still better than Claiborne and unless some solid corners get cut then I don't expect The Cowboys to release him. I think The Ravens will be in for another off season where no solid corners are cut and will have to rely on their own guys but atleast this time they actually got a corner from the draft.
  8. I don't think The Ravens view him as a tight end. His timed speed and etc at The NFL Combine is very similar to Mike Evans and Kelvin Benjamin whom both are receivers where some thought would be better as tight ends than receivers.
  9. It usually takes time for a rookie corner to get adjusted to The NFL but I'm not sure if Dallas is in the right position to cut Carr even with his huge salary. If they cut him it only leaves them with Orlando Scandrick, Byron Jones, and Morris Claiborne as their starting corners. Claiborne is still recovering from a acl tear and hasn't lived up to expectations. I like the Tray Walker pick and he may surprise us on how far along he really is but we shall see.
  10. Juice only fumbled the ball twice last year and he not your traditional fullback. He's a hybrid whom versatile enough to play tight end , fullback, and etc. Those type of players/fullbacks are quite useful in my opinion because you can use them in the passing game and even come in and help block for the running back, I think it's good to have a player like Juice on the offense because he's only gives the defense another player to worry about.
  11. I think one of the main problems with Brown last year was not only was he he having trouble getting adjusted to the new offensive scheme but he doesnt stand out on special teams like Aiken and Campanaro. If you a back up player on John Harbaugh team one way to get more playing time on offense or defense is to make plays on special teams
  12. True. The Colts were in need of a kick returner and Dorsett skill sets matches Ty Hilton so when Hilton contract is up then they can allow him to walk especially if Dorsett is showing he can replace Hilton . Right now Dorsett gives them a pretty good returner which is something Perriman wouldn't be able to do atleast to my understanding.
  13. How did Gillmore really fail? He wasn't expected to be apart of the passing game in his rookie season but overall a good blocker . I think Gillmore blocking was so good to the point even PFF recognize him but I strongly doubt The Ravens are going to cut a third rounder like Gillmore. You don't give up on third rounders right away at all. None of the rookie tight ends last year took the league by storm or made the pro bowl.
  14. So that means we got a real good deep threat which is what we need and if he can be returner like Jacoby Jones that even better especially if he can dance.
  15. Still doesn't change the fact that he looking for more money and it's not like The Bears are hurting for cap space either.. I think if The Ravens decide to trade for a tight end it probably be during the later portion of the draft or after the draft.
  16. I think it's higher than a fifth. He is coming off a pro bowl season as well.
  17. Joe not Steve young but Marc Trestman has had success with other quarterbacks in the league not name Young. Steve Smith is not Jerry Rice but I wouldn't be surprised if he was able to put up 1,000+ receiving yard season again.
  18. Even if Kubiak is the better offensive coodinator it doesn't mean Trestman isn't good.
  19. I thought Reid was solid through out training camp and preseason but he just had a tough time staying healthy. Wagner most likely will miss some time in training camp so they going to need somebody to practice in his place at right tackle.
  20. Usually guards can play at a high level for quite awhile so I''m not really concerned about Yanda being 31 coming next season.Osemele is indeed emerging as one of the leagues best guards but he still can be quite inconsistent at times and get banged up at times due to injuries. Yanda still the better guard until proven other wise . I would like for The Ravens to be able to keep both but I rather The Ravens keep Yanda over Osemele. I think left guards tend to make more money than right guards as well . Urschel played all over the line last year and I think he even played at left guard when Osemele was out and did a solid job at it as well. Urschel may be Yanda replacment but he also may be Osemele replacement it's really no telling. The Ravens may even be able to find either Yanda or Osemele replacement with this upcoming draft but time will time
  21. Seems like his agent maybe trying to take advantage of the fact that this year tight end class is pretty weak and figured Housler could get more money because it but teams aren't buying it.
  22. I won't be suprised if he goes to Cinci since Cinci has more cap space but right now there hasn't been any updates. He either haven't a hard time figuring out what team he wants to play for or he's asking for too much money.
  23. Kubiak must have seen something in him to want to trade for him. I know Gino had a bad year in 2013 but people can chance and get better. We didn't really get the opportunity to see Gino play in 2014 because Zuttah was the starter
  24. that's interesting
  25. He also has some problems staying healthy atleast to my knowledge. I did find it quite interesting that The Falcons didn't bother signing him after a visit with them. I don't know if he was asking for too much money at the time or not.
