Alright! No more mock drafts and endless speculation on what the Ravens might/could/should/ought to/probably will do. The first long leg of the offseason is over, now the second long leg...September 13th. 132 more days...

I forced myself to be indifferent with this pick because nobody can say one way or another how he's going to do until the season is well underway. Best of luck to our new WR and welcome to Baltimore!

BPA...ok. But it's pretty frustrating that our first three picks of this year's draft were the same positions that our first 3 picks of last year's draft were also. Oh well, at least we know that if 20 of our defensive line players go down to injury, we have another 20 ready to back them up. Unfortunately, if any of the starters on the O Line, WRs, or RBs go down...

Remember how bad Oher was last year? The fact that Wagner was never plugged in to replace him doesn't speak too highly of Wagner's talent. Other than the re-signing of Monroe, I'm pretty nervous that not much has been done to improve Flacco's protection. We all saw how he plays with pressure constantly in his face last season.

BPA...sure can be frustrating. Our two picks so far this year are the same positions that we spent 2nd and 3rd round picks on last year. Doesn't exactly seem like a vote of confidence for Arthur Brown or Brandon Williams. I'm still nervously wondering how the offense is expected to improve from its abysmal performance from last year. Still no clear answer at RT. I'm wondering if moving KO from his comfort zone at Guard to RT might yield the same results as when Oher moved from RT to LT. I just figured more effort would have been put into protecting the team's 120 million dollar investment by now.

Eugene Monroe is alum of UVA too. We've already seen the benefits of having two alum from the same school on the field at the same time (Ed Reed & Ray Lewis). Not that Monroe & Moses are All-Pro material, but I think having Moses and Monroe bookend the O Line might pay big dividends.
