Is the board no longer available through the app?

Works for me.

This offseason hasn't been terrible but it makes this draft look difficult.. 

there are some good Gs and RTs early on, the class is loaded with cbs and it has some great edge rushers, wr is weak. 

Really hard to know which to address. 

Dixon's dilema is a huge bummer.

Actually a very smart move for him. Cousins will be trying to ball out for his next contract and he's basically the only thing they have in the form of a #1 receiver.

He may be catching passes from Colt McCoy instead of Captain Kirk.

He also mentioned that in his presser.

His hometown outside of Milwaukee is about a 6 hour drive, or a 1 hour flight from Detroit. Not as close as Chicago would have been, but I guess he can afford it now.

Lol.  He could buy himself a nice small lear jet.

In the 3 cone drill he was .03 seconds slower than sterling sheperad....

6'6", 285 with that quickness?  It ain't just a pipedeream, dude could be a beast.

I haven't noticed anyone speaking out against that pick.  yea it sucks he got injured but the guy is a freak athlete, im excited to see him play. 

Yeah, me too. His size and athleticism make him a potential game changer.

They should've asked him to take a pay cut and kept him as a back up imho. Cut Pitta! Why are they dancing around the Pitta situation? Asking him for a pay cut instead of designating him a post June 1st cut and getting rid of him?

Don't think the ship has sailed on Guy.  Has it?

Oh man it would be amazing to see those 2 a month from now on tmz in the club dancing like gronk

He visited last night and left without a contract, for what it's worth.

I had heard Danny flew him in on his private jet.  Maybe Pryor and Scott got hammered and screwed the deal, and Scot was then fired.    lol  Makes for a good story anyway.

With the skins losing both Djax and Garcon I'm guessing they are strong players in the Pryor market.  Problem is who is working the  deal?   maybe the equipment manager.   lol

Meh. Not sure why it's sad. He is no longer a good saftey/corner. His speed is gone, and he's a second too late on nearly every play. Should have been released last offseason. This is football. He's not serving a life sentence. 

Actually last year at safety was his best contribution in the last 4 to 5 years and he kinda saved their butts stepping in.  That said, His $ just don't match up with his value at this point. May not happen but I wouldn't be surprised if they bring him back.

Got the anchor for the D line wrapped up, now work on the O line please.

Hi @Edgar,

I'm not sure if you are aware, but we launched a Ravens podcast -- The Lounge -- at the beginning of the season. Our writers, Ryan Mink and Garrett Downing, share their thoughts and often sit down and chat with players and other guests. The 47th episode was posted yesterday.

Check it out on iTunes, Soundcloud or wherever you listen to your podcasts.

It would seem that the idea was for an outlet for the fans, not just a podcast. 

Seems as though the ones responsible for media distribution and promo are well disconnected from the very fan base that are supposed to be their customers.

im surprised there have been literally no rumours about brandon yet...

Been thinking the same and hopeful that means he stays.

Kind of a sad comment on the state of meaningful communication in our society. It's slowly becoming extinct.

I think it was that ray rayvens dude that shut t his place down.    lol

I don't think we're serious contenders for Alshon or Pryor, each wants 10mil/year (minimum). Garcon might still be an option, but all the news I've seen about him has been that the Niners are making a serious run for him (via Rapoport)

Yeah, I'm sure no Pryor or Jeffries. Garcon makes sense and if their offer is competitive(if they even are making an offer) with SF maybe staying in the area could be a sell for the Ravens.

Here's our man right here.

Cool, we will see what happens when FA starts. But in a market where most teams have a lot of cap and the FA class isn't very good, would not surprise me one bit to see some crazy deals come out of this FA class. Even forum mock prices are crazier than usual with the previous record bid being shattered. 

They could get paid and leave, sure. No great revelation.......just sayin.

Uh they felt inclined to post it so they must feel strongly enough to do that.

lol.  What else are they going to post this time of year?  Slow times for the rumor mill guys. 

4 minutes ago, 52520Andrew said:

Well he is saying the same thing as Zeibric, I'd take their word over the word of people posting here

The thing is it's not their word. At this point it's nothing more than speculation based on assumed interest and them not having a deal here.

They have waited too long for sure, but it's never too late to protect your aging qb lol. I don't think effort was the issue either. McKinney always had an elite ceiling and we risked the drama to bring him on and it was a big boost towards a SB, Monroe was a blockbuster move that failed miserably because he just sucked as a person, Gino gradkowski was promising but we moved on from that asap and signed a respectable veteran at center who has gotten hurt, we've made moves but we've also lucked out with guys like Wagner and Lewis. 

This also could be all for nothing because for all we know Lewis is their guy and he could blow Wagner out of the water at RT, and we could make a play for a monster of a RG like feeney or a C like elflein or pocic.

Yeah, the Pothead Fisherman screwed us big time and it had a dominoe effect on many levels. Still carrying dead money from that debacle.

i am a big jernigan fan, when he is playing hot it is a sight to see, he demolishes blockers, he is such a bully the way he just shoves guys back and tosses them to the side, and he moves incredibly well and has gotten better each season in all of those regards, BUT he always has been inconsistent, to the point that he totally disappears. for a good 6-8 weeks of the season he looks unblockable, and its usually all combined in one long stretch of dominance, and then he is nonexistent for the rest of the year. 

on the other hand, we have never kept a solid line together for joe, he cant keep the same starting 5 for an 8 week stretch let alone 2 years in a row. wagner is undoubtedly a starting RT and a high end one who will keep the qb upright. if it comes down to wagner, williams, or jernigan, i want the money going to wagner.

They've waited too long already IMO, but the time has come to solidify the O line with young studs. Stanley, Lewis and Wagner would be a great trio to lock down for their careers, and find a mauler at center.  What worries me is Yanda and his health. At 32 the nicks are going to mount and obviously he will be hard to replace.
