  1. I don't care where we pick next year as long as we draft a CB early.
  2. For this time of year ... I think you nailed it. Good call on Reynolds as our 3rd QB.
  3. Vegas (Bovada) projects the Ravens to be an 8-8 team so I would not bet the ranch on 4-12.
  4. As I recall, the Ravens have been having a string of road game loses and have been equally unimposing at home. So many recovering ACL and other serious injuries also does not bode well for a highly successful season. I expect an improvement over last season but Cincinnati and Pittsburgh are still the teams to beat. The nine games after the bye feel like 3 & 6 at the moment. Vegas lists them as basically an 8-8 team; anything more seems like a purple kool aid pick.
  5. I don't know why everyone here thinks SSSr is a lock. He's 37, he retired, was injured, un-retired and is rehabbing. People seem to think he'll perform as if he was 34 again. I for one am not buying it. I love his fiery spirit and I hope he fully recovers, but Ozzie needs to have a heart-2-heart with him. He's taking a roster spot from a young'in.
  6. I can understand SSSr not wanting to end his career being carried off the field but I would be very surprised if he adds much to the receiving corps. Same feeling with Suggs; coming back from major injuries at their age, and being highly productive, is nearly impossible.
  7. No sense in pining over what wasn't meant to be. A 40% success rate from this draft would be nice.
  8. All in all a very solid draft from Oz et al. Time to support our guys in all ways possible. Training camp will be interesting. Can't wait.
  9. Add another OLineman, another OLBer, an ILBer, a CB, a WR and repeat ... holes are starting to be filled. Only time will tell how the draft went, but hope springs eternal.
  10. Cowboys continue to be a thorn in the Ravens side on draft day. Just another reason to hate on them.
  11. The myth of the Ravens always taking BPA is put to rest with this pick. Stanley is a solid player, but hardly the best in the mind of most.
  12. Someone trying to make the Ravens uniform look worse than the Steelers Bumble Bee uniforms. Didn't think it was possible but apparently they are trying. Gag Me With a Spoon.
  13. So exciting talking about all these players that will not be available to us; last week it was Tunsil, this week Jack.
  14. Todd McShay is a draft guru is he? That's funny.
  15. In a few more years, I may not care if the NFL plays all their games in China.
  16. It still turned out to be a lose-lose case for us. We lost the higher draft pick and the Steelers still made the playoffs...hollow victories.
  17. We all knew beating the Steelers at the end of the season was gonna cost us a game-changer pick.
  18. Never hurts to sniff a rose if you are careful.
  19. Riding without a helmet; so young, so sad.
  20. I had a very similar idea the other day: each team should be given two unsuccessful challenges per game - meaning each team could go on challenging any challengeable ruling until their second challenge that doesn't result in the reversal of the original ruling. If it's 10 good challenges before the second unsuccessful one, it's 10. If it's zero, it's zero. Totally agree, makes no sense to penalize a team that challenges an officials erroneous call.
  21. Excellent 3 years as a Raven, but now it's time to make room for Myles Jack.
  22. No matter how you parse it .... dats a loooooota money.
  23. Whoa, Joe's post-SB stats & his new 40mil guarantee money getting slammed on espn nfl live. Evidently Joe's not elite. hmmm
  24. It's a crying shame that none of the listed safeties Ozzie has invested in has been able to separate from the pack. But hope springs eternal; next season is a new year and a new opportunity to excel. Here's hoping for the best.
  25. I'd wait for the QB carousel to shakeout leading up to the draft b4 I'd ever project any of this year's crop of QBs to a top 10 (and esp a top 5) selection. I know desperate teams do desperate things, but a top 10 selection of a 2nd or 3rd round project.... See the 2011 QBs that were snatched early...what a waste of a good draft pick.
