Yep, 2008 was the best star studded Ravens team. Almost all position had play makers.Came down to this for the Super Bowl " Pittsburgh pulled away as safety Troy Polamalu returned an interception 40 yards for a touchdown."
Love Bowser,Williams,Siragusa picks. So so on others. Im sure i'll warm up to Humphrey if he turns into a stud.
Rnd 5, pick up a offensive weapon please.
Same here. I hope too Humphrey turns into another Chris McAlister or better. Chris was another let go after John showed up(Same age as Carr) and should be in the ring of honor. No Raven CB has been better... yet.
Hey we have another Siragusa. Got a love that.
Ozzie Newsome is a wizard Ravens D is gonna be STACKED for the next few years
You do realize Ozzie did pick Matt Elam and Author Brown just to name a few. We'll know how good this defense is or could be after the Bengals game. This guy's don't need their heads swelled any more than they already are.
I love how the defense is going to be insane for the coming season, thank you, thank you, thank you Ozzie for picking Tim Williams!
On the other hand, I'd be raging if I was Flacco. Apart from picking up Woodhead we've done nothing to help him do his job to a good enough level. There's no reason why we couldn't have gone Ardarius Stewart/Chris Godwin & Tim Williams (in any order) in round 3. Perriman best be the crap this season or else we could be in trouble.
At $25m a year, Flacco needs to do more, period (see other $20+ QBs such as Brady & Rodgers).
Who was the goof that gave him that contract? Ozzie could have had a better deal but agreed to walk away.
Don't worry about it Ryan, just don't worry about it. We needed to address our defense OK. This is Ravens town, AKA defense. Just let the big boys handle business.
Good job Ozzie, and evrybyelse who had to do with us getting these phenomenal picks. Step one... address this defense. Next year we will add more to our offense.you know if harbs don't make the playoffs there is no next year for him right I'm happy with our picks except Chris Wormley Ive seen him play a lot and he lacks production and takes plays off so IMO this was a reach
I don't think Harbaugh feels such a pressure - even if he was fired from Baltimore, he'd have a new HC gig in a day. Even with his rather pedestrian last 3 seasons, his overall track record is still rather impressive.
I would not bet on John getting a head job in the NFL. He'll have to go back to college. John done nothing since Ed and Ray left but fire coaches and Kubiak proved the players were not the problem. The failed draft picks also signed part of John's fate. I don't see John going anywhere. The wheels would have to completely come off. Joe on the other hand is going to get beat up in more ways than one. Right or wrong.
Joe's going to have to invest some of that money into long term medical coverage. Just like last year our defense got wore down and Ravens will lose many of their games in the fourth QTR. In current state.

Are any of them from Alabama? You know Ravens can't pick any of those "other" schools.
Ever since we missed out on Dez zero pro bowlers and a bunch of what if's.
Mosley aint a pro bowler......
Ravens don't believe in pro bowlers. That's why they don't have any.
I would put Marlon on A.J Green the first game "You want to be the best, play against the best" . Ravens are going to lose anyway
No grade means their still in shock. I hope when he turns 21 on July 8th he does not go out and get arrested.
Scouts report:" Issues playing the deep ball are a concern. From off coverage, overreacts to route fakes and opens the door to a big play. That's why they picked on him during the title game.“Remember when scouts reported Perriman dropped easy passes and what is he doing now? Humphrey is going top make a great special teams player.
Note to Joe Flacco I don't know who you made mad but you better fix it. You have no Center or no right Tackle and Ravens just passed on a beast TE that runs over people. Also, two teams in your division just picked big time pass rushers and the other picked a rocket receiver........Good Luck.
I really don't care who the Ravens pick today as long as they are the best player on the board. We need some 5-stars and at the moment we don't have any.
Why start now?
What good is wide receiver if Joe does not have time to throw? If available I hope they pick another great OL player. Otherwise go defense, don't give others time to throw either.
Im gonna say this... If browns have a great draft this year we are in trouble. Imagine if they go all all defense in first 2 rounds( which is what i would do) or 3 defensive players and maybe fournttte if he drops to 12. That could potentially put them a QB away from competing.
If they pick a QB with one of their first two pick then they are the same old Browns.
I just can't see Ravens picking a wide receiver. Pass Rusher, Offensive Line Linebacker and Secondary. Receiver would mean Ozzie & company were wrong on Perriman and Moore, Is it a new fab to get in trouble these days before the draft? Foster and now https://ebonybird.com/2017/04/23/ravens-draft-take-caleb-brantley-off-draft-board/
80% of the guys drafted this year will hardly play.this season. Ravens don't have a draft better than the other three teams in our division Ravens will become cellar dwellers for a long while. Then will be looking for a QB again.
In Sandusky's tweet at the bottom, he doesn't really explain why it can't be Ravens/Browns and Steelers/Bengals to end the season...
Gee really? How about this.Ravens usually beat Browns, Split with the Steelers and lose against the Bengals. A team /city you don't like wouldn't you want them to always end with a lose?
Reading these comments I see all everyone want is a big name WR and that's not what it takes it the QB and the play calling! The pats got no names it's brady and the play calling that makes their Offense work! Smh again I believe in whom we have already! If the Ravens picked WRs like the pats do some of yall fruit of the looms would be all twisted! Lol
We don't need a big name WR. We need someone that can run routes, someone that can be relied upon for big third down pick ups, someone that can make contested catches, and someone that can be a red zone presence. Breshad and Mike are great speed guys, now we need that "Q" type, that worked so well pairing with Torrey. Ju Ju Schuster Smith is exactly what we need. He's rated as the 5th or 6th best wr in this class ( which is absurd, he might be my favorite), so grabbing him in the 2nd would be SO perfect
Ever wonder why Ravens have receivers that can't run routes? Yet they do that in college. All these receivers that come to Baltimore and forget everything. Strange.
Seriously? Did Mike Wallace not see the dropped passes, the poor route running, the stupid mistakes and not to mention, no one, NO ONE stepping up and taking over a game. Like Odell Becham did, like Antonio Brown did and so on and so on.
I see your point There is a reason Wallace is on his 4th team and Boldin was on his second. Whats funny about the Ravens all three Perriman, Wallace, and Moore are "Deep Ball Receivers" Not the kind of ball Joes been throwing much since 2013.
More than anything Joe needs more accuracy. If you look at Perriman and Moore highlights their great at catching on the run but Joe needs more receivers like Boldin type.
Sounds like good common sense is being used.
Joe going to need more than a brace if Ravens don't fix the holes in the OL.
