  1. I had an early 4th round grade on Correa and liked Fackrell way more. I hope I'm wrong, but I just really didn't see anything in him that made me believe he could translate to the NFL.
  2. Scout the player not the helmet
  3. I would love nothing more than to get Garrett, but it's very unlikely. Every team is going to look at him as another Von Miller (or better) and everyone has seen the impact a guy like that has. My point is I think it's going to be an incredibly steep asking price and you know how Ozzie loves stockpiling picks to get players that might be pretty good a few years down the road.
  4. Agree on all that. He was my least favorite pick in a long time.
  5. Same issues game after game year after year
  6. As much as I love this team it's probably the most frustrating one in the league
  7. All our WR's suck at contested catches
  8. This is a very flawed article. But I'll say I think the biggest reasons for the teams struggles has been mediocre drafting and it's tendancy to rely too much on old players. Almost all the best players the last few years have been at least 30+. These players are much more likely to get injured or have their physical skills diminish quickly and we've seen the results of it. You can't complain or act surprised when your 32 and 34 year old pass rushing duo (Who you pay a ton of money) suffer serious injuries and can't get pressure anymore. Or when a 35 year old tight end or 36 year old receiver, who you rely on to be your top two targets, tear their Achilles. Side note, but the Watson signing is probably my least favorite Ozzie move ever. Part of the reason they've had to rely on them is because the influx of young talent through the draft has been underwhelming as a whole lately. Probably an average amount of busts, but even the good ones have just taken awhile to develop. Ignoring CB and WR has been a huge mistake. And losing guys like McPhee and KO while you have a lot of money tied up to players not contributing makes it harder. Last draft was a good start (Correa was the only player I didn't like) but some great young players is definitely still needed to turn the Ravens around.
  9. Matt Miller says he has 15 CB's in his top 100. Obviously some will return to school, but this should be a stacked corner class which is pretty rare. This is the year the Ravens finally need to get one early.
  10. Finding a good OC and some better talent sounds a lot easier and better than gambling on a new head coach.
  11. Ya why not promote Engram. Most likely in house candidate and worst case we're looking for another OC in the offseason, which is already what the FO will be doing if they stick with Trestman. I will miss Chloe though tbh
  12. It's unreal. Since drafting Jimmy, the front office hasn't invested in anyone who could be seen as a potential starting outside CB. Yet they've managed to use enough resources to get 6 decent starting TE's. And I've always been an Ozzie fan too..
  13. Of the few players I've seen extensive play of, I think Tre'Davious White and Charles Harris are my favorite realistic options right now. White had great combo of size, athleticism and technique. Harris has struggled a bit compared to last year, but mizzou also lost maybe the best D-line coach in college football, and the whole front has struggled with the new scheme and concepts. Watch his film from last year too. He could be a steal if he falls.
  14. I really think they'll address OL through free agency. Already two inexperienced starters on the line and they'll definitely want a vet at center, where Zuttah clearly needs to be upgraded upon. So my top needs for the draft are OLB, CB and WR. The funny thing is I'm pretty that's what they were the past two years.
  15. I just hope Vernon and JPP don't seriously injure Flacco.
  16. I really wish we had gotten Kyle Shanahan. Falcons are picking apart the Broncos D right now
  17. Can't see the game, are they really doing as bad as it sounds from people on here?
  18. Wright's not in a slump, it's just who he is. His entire career has been mostly bad games with some decent ones. He's 29 and not getting better. There's definitely some mental things he could clean up in his game, but he just isn't good.
  19. Anyone who thought Wright was going to be good here didn't see his entire career. Very inconsistent and the highs aren't even that high. No idea why the FO gave him 13mil.
  20. A lot of players blew it at the end there. Sloppy play at the most critical time
  21. Perfect throw too. Crappy way to lose
  22. We LOVE that route to Steve
  23. Shocking, you're terrible
  24. I swear if Wright messes this up
