This team probably has to pass to open up the running game. The opponents are stacking the box with 8 and daring them to throw downfield.(or so it seems)

From our family to the Brooks & Ravens family our sincerest and heartfelt condolences. This brings into clear focus that football, while important, is still only a game and that real life will intrude and remind us all to clearly what the bottom line is all about. RIP Mr. Clarence Brooks

Looks like a winner. Stay healthy, get in sync with Joe and good things are on the way!

He didn't get hurt so it was a success. One step at a time.

Why would they? Frankly, he hasn't shown he would be ready to do anything on an NFL level at this pont - and don't forget that a PS player can only be taken if he's placed on the active roster of his new team - you cannot take a guy from another team's PS and place him on your PS. And I don't really see a team that would have a free active spot for a guy who cannot really contribute yet... I guess the plan with Reynolds was to let him develop for at least a season anyway. I don't think anybody could realistically expect him to make a full switch to a position he's never ever played at, and get to an NFL-ready level in one camp and pre-season... Rookies always say the jump from the college level to the NFL is gigantic, even if they don't have to switch to a new position... Nobody could think Reynolds could do it - and of course not because he would not be good enough, but because this is not a job to do in such a short time. He'll almost surely miss the final cut, come back for the PS, and spend a year to develop into what Ozzie and Harbaugh projected him to become. And I think he's long been aware that this is the plan - propbably from draft day. Someone would pick him up and keep him as a project. His talent is too good to be passed up and a team like the Patriots would probably bite. It takes time to change but if(when) Campy is injured they're sure going to wish they had him. To have C back in punt/kickoff returns seems foolish given his history of injuries. Let's see what he does this evening and if he performs as this poster expects he'll have a job in the NFL, if not with us then somewhere. Much too early to bail on that type of talent.

Reynolds won't last a day on the PS. Some team will grab him in a football minute. With Campy's status always up in the air they may come to regret losing him. All he needs is time.

Faster than a speeding ball, more powerful than a Joey Bosa, able to leap tall DB's in a single bound, why IT'S PERRIMAN!

Maybe a play or two but keep Perriman out for the most part. Also looking forward to see what Judon can do against the front liners. That's not a be all to end all but should give the Coaches a sense on how far he still has to go.

Why not?

Keep him in a bubble until the opening game. That speed is exactly what the team needs and will keep the opposing D from putting too many players in the box. It obviously opens up the running game and alleviates the pressure on Joe.

This is where Lewis shows hes a starter. Also this is where Reynolds shows hes not. With Kendricks Lewis and Kyle Arrington both sidelined I betting our secondary will look a lot better. Well see but do have more optimism re: Reynolds, at least to make the 53. He's learning new positions and that may take some time.

Hope to see a lot of Reynolds returning kicks and playing some at WR. It will probably come down to him or Campy and if C can stay healthy he's in. Having said that can the R's gamble on him staying healthy and put R on the practice squad and expect another team not to pick him up? Doubtful in both cases. Also, looking forward to seeing more of Judon because it's questionable whether Suggs and or Elvis has enough left in the tank to go all the way.

Looking forward to seeing Messrs. Reynolds, Dixon, West & Correa in action with special emphasis on Correa. Losing the BYU pick for the year means he and others will have to pick up the pace, esp. in the pass rushing dept.

You left out the biggest name of all. Don't get me wrong I know this wasn't what you were going for exactly but we can certainly lay claim to the greatest baseball player ever, Babe Ruth. At least it was the Red Sox and not B'More that traded him away. "The Great Bambino" "The Sultan of Swat" etc. etc.

Joe might as well get in while the getting's good. The fame and benefits won't last forever and they'll be others, as of yet unknown, willing and ready to assume his spot. Great representative for the bank, the Ravens and the city(and county) of Baltimore.

One word...Bravo!

Urban & Jernigan are the two to watch as they have the most potential to help with the pass rush. Willie Henry may be the dark horse candidate to come out nowhere to surprise all.

The Tuckman is the real deal and a perfect fit for Charm city. The extension should be sooner rather than later. Get 'er done!

Looking for big things from Urban this year. After passing on Buckner and with Kaufusi looking tentative it's all the more important for Urban to step up and deliver.

Wondering if you said the same when Brent Urban sat out his rookie season and then tore his pec in training camp his 2nd season and didnt return until week 10. Or did you say that when Kaprone Lewis Moore sat out his 1st two years b/c of a knee injury and then a ruptured achilles. These 2 guys were mid to late round draft picks who the Ravens didn't just cut b/c they were injured. So if the Ravens didn't cut to mid rounders b/c of injuries what makes you think they're going to cut a 1st round pick b/c of injuries? He's not going to be cut anytime soon. He'll be around awhile.

One more trip to the IR and it's goodbye Campo and hello Keenan. And this from a stalwart Campo supporter. If there's anyone on the team that has hands of glue, can find the open spot and know what to do afterwards, it's Campo. The obvious problem is that he's more of a player on paper than on the field.

That the second bit of good news in the last couple of days. If Dr. Andrews is correct(re: Perriman) it should be a good offensive season. Hurry up July and no more injuries!

WHEW!

Just brutal. Now the BYU DL, who was drafted instead of Buckner, is out until training camp, if not longer. If things don't improve this year there will be major changes in the FO in '17.

Reynolds will be given every chance to stick and the odd man out will probably be Campo. He just can't stay healthy and it seems they drafted Reynolds for just that reason. I, for one, hope that Campo can make it because he always finds the open area and has hands of glue. However, he's more a player on paper than one on the field.
