    Not sure if this was John decision to put on pads but perhaps. one of his coaches.  John been around the NFL long enough to know what the rules are.....  I doubt very seriously if he intentionally violated the rules without a thought.  

    if he didn't know as HC,

    then we are in trouble.

    many people here fault ben,

    nope this is all harb,we should be asking what is the logic

    why?

    In a perfect world, Arthur Brown will play to his potential. And his potential as a great slightly undersized athletic cover ILB to complement Mosley is high. If you watch his college film, one can argue he's similar to Myles Jack (not quite though). Orr came in to play on passing downs last year because Daryl Smith couldn't cover anybody. Seeing Arthur Brown and Mosley together finally would be awesome. 

    I'll never forget when I saw Brown run to the sideline crazy fast, catch Adrian Peterson and twist his ankle. The dude needs to stay healthy and hopefully can pick up the defense finally. 

    I was here to say Arthur Brown, 

    and I was about to reference jack,

    they do carry the same skill set. 

    so if we let D.Smith walk

    I really think it is his time, after we let a player go to houston to start 

    maybe our evaluation becomes a little more detailed.

    Doesnt exactly come out and say it but when he has been running for 3 1/2 weeks, squatting 400lbs and leg pressing 600lbs I see absolutely nothing wrong with his knee.. I just find it a HUGE coincidence that the team that did the surgery on him happens to also be the team that drafted him. Remember we are talking about the player that could of went #1 overall in the draft if they knew his knee would be fine.

    this is jerry's world

    my buddy in dallas told me right after they draft him that 

    dallas cowboys dr did the surgery 

    kinda crudely done

    but all is fair in the

    realm of gladiator tactics

    i'm actually surprised that Victor Ochi wasn't drafted. He was pretty impressive at the east west shrine game  and he didn't look no different than Noah Spence in my opinion. Teams over look players all the time  and just because Ochi wasn't drafted doesn't mean he isn't or won't be good.

    although you are correct,

    the deck is stacked against him,

    when a player go un drafted

    they become camp body then special team (especially under harb)

    to make a position,

    perseverance, dedication and an awful  insane amount of hard work

    it can be done but not likely under our regime

    I don't see anything wrong with what he said to you. If you can't take some sarcasm then you shouldn't be on a forum. Sarcasm isn't against the rules.

    grim,

    it was not said to me 

    I was commenting on the response to another person 

    kinda rude

    C'mon guys, it's not always about getting the flashy players the media is hyped about. Remember Ed Reed was "Solid, but not great" back in the day.
    Think about it, we're not rocking on the draft selecting pro bowlers but we're assembling good teams, and we're one of the few teams that's been competing in the playoffs every year since 2008.

    In 2014, we had 4 pro-bowlers despite having a good overall season, but it's hard to think that Smith & Smith weren't a great WR tandem.

    There's a lot to like about the 4th rounders from last year, Z. Smith and J. Allen. Pernell McPhee was in the 5th round back in 2011, Pitta, in the 4th round, Arthur Jones, 5th round, Adalius Thomas, 6th round.
    In Ozzie we trust!

    ed reed is a bad example he came out of the miami u
    in that time frame winning was all that mattered, they as a unit played on the edge, winning was all that mattered

    I am not happy with this group of picks

    and if I could speak with Mr.B

    I would say ,

    "Sir, what is our identity? what direction are we taking?

    why would we take all these draft picks and allow quality players to escape.

    Mr B, you are a self made success story through your business. you did this being aggressive and taking chances

    your team Mr B, does not reflect you, the fans, ore the city,

    our history was built with being aggressive, built on taking chances    

    players play on the edge many have killer instinct 

    when suggs went out that is what we lost, the voice the leader,

    we are drafting backseat and passengers, we need a driver.

    sir, we need to trade for a Leader on defense  cause we did not do it on draft day 1 and 2.." 

    let me say they are  safe picks as of this moment, I do not see a killer instinct in them. 

    now here comes the song and dance from people

    Alot of narrow visioned fans are wetting their panties, but Ozzie has been nailing everything so far.

    We've had 3 consecutive years of secondaries that have gotten shredded, years by the way in which, on aggregate, we have a losing record. In those years we've had no serious 2nd starting calibre CB and have stuck an undersized coverted safety with 2 torn acls as our 2nd corner in Webby.

    I wouldn't consider this "nailing everything so far."

    We haven't drafted this high in over a decade and what's the first inkling? Draft a LT and trade back twice to stockpile mediocre players.

    ( personal attack removed) qWhen I said nailing everything, I was talking about the draft so far. Not the IR lists of the past two years.

    But since you want to bring that up, the reason we've had problems with our secondary for the past two years is because almost the entire secondary has been out injured during that time. We've been sourcing DBs from local high school JV squads the past couple years, just so we could have enough warm bodies on the field to avoid a forfeit. I'm as irritated by the injuries as anyone, and I want the organization to get to the bottom of it. But what do you propose? We already have 7 CBs on the roster, and I believe 5 safeties. You want us to use early picks to draft even more!?! I realize that your knowledge of football is on par with your expertise in rocket sciences so let me clue you in....there's a maximum limit of 53 roster spots. We can't use 25 of them on DBs. Between Smith, Webb, and Weddle, and an assortment of decent B-list players, we're actually pretty well off in that department. We just have to keep them healthy.

    Our biggest weakness the past couple years has been the offensive line. Even two years ago, when we had 10th stringers plugged in as starters, we STILL did a pretty good job of shutting down even the Patriots in the playoffs. Or don't you remember that they had to pull out trick play after trick play in order to win that game?

    If we're going to have a $22 million QB, then we HAVE to have a line that can protect him. And since we couldn't afford to keep KO, getting Stanley was really the only acceptable option.

    not speaking for him but my interpretation is
    we have never had a problem drafting linemen in the later rounds
    certain position the FO really draft well
    I agree the FO could have gone a different direction
    all of our pics being good but none standing out,
    our players drafted was safe angelic choices
    if you want a team to get over the hump
    then you need certain players with certain traits
    I agree with the gentleman, for me
    I do not like the picks
    but only because of the character traits,
    killer instincts is desperately needed here
    we have no killer instincts on this team

    We've lost the edge. We always go for quantity over quality. What's the point of having lots of picks and taking a gamble on them. I'd rather take fewer players earlier. Take the quality and not hope for the best. But, the organization has changed.... Don't know if its Decosta or Harbaugh's influence.

    this is my point every year we pick all these players and half of them are gone

    it frustrating cause you see players going and then gone,

    we take no chance, this mentality of taking angelic type players 

    DO NOT WIN GAMES, 

    you need players that live on the edge a little 

    I love my team and been a fan since we came home to baltimore,

    but the direction we are going is not good,

    no fist bump, no justifying, just no excuses

    we needed players that make plays,

    correa = all mountain 2nd team, and you all are happy, really

    kaufusi = what is the deal with mormons and surgery

    this do not smell like flowers,

    be honest, 

    even stanley has no energy,
