They are going to build the O Line first.. They understand, now* that Joe needs it and for 6yrs/120 mil. he's not going anywhere.. Expect a T at 16.. or us to move back if we think we can still get the T we want later in the first and steal another 2nd rounder. Stanley A. Lewis Nick Mangold Yanda and top T in this year draft would be good enough for best O Line in the division for sure..

Stanley had a solid year man.. Once he came back from his injury he did really good.. You say look back at all the games Alex Lewis started and we won like, as if to say Lewis is a 6 year vet.. He's a rookie too.. How many games did Stanley start at OT that we could have won before blowing it?..

Would love to get Marshall.. 5 years ago... Too late now.. Get younger..

B Williams is expendable.. Great player but fortunately for baltimore, DL is the one area of our team we do rather well at drafting so the depth is there.. Loosing Williams to another team will hurt us far less than having to outbid and overpay for him keeping us from addressing the real issues on the Baltimore Ravens roster.. Pass Rusher.. WR.. DB...OL... TE... RB and now ILB As far as OJ Howard.. if he is there at 16 I cant argue with taking him.. An unstoppable TE can do wonders for a rather sketchy WR corps.. Ask NE about that.. Though I feel we have positions we are worse off in that we will look to address at 16..

To you my friend, I would argue that if our trend of 19+ players on IR from a year ago continues (6 of which were DBs) then this pick up is far more than next to nothing.. its more like.. next in line.. As we will go to our practice squad for a replacement before peaking at the Free agent list and/or proposing trades.

Bad call on DeAndre Carter. Would have loved for him to get as many reps as possible in a "make or break" preseason game 4.. Think he has a lot to offer. Just was nervous.. A lil out of sync.. In game reps can change that.. I sure wish him well.. hope we can snag him for the practice squad atleast when its all said and done.

Really hoping its DeAndre Carter.. Feel like he has a good shot at it.

Im going to go out on a limb and say Flacco tops 30 TD passes this season.. Trestman likes the bigger receivers on the outside (Marshall & Jeffery) So look for Perriman and Marlon Brown to be outside with Steve Smith Sr and Campanaro rotating in the slot. Maxx Williams and/or Dennis Pitta to hold down TE.. Oh and cant forget about Justin Dorsett.. I mean Forsett*!..

Some players I think we will keep an eye on and possibly bring in to atleast talk too even if we know its far fetch RB- Roy Helu, Jaquizz Rodgers, Stevan Ridley WR- **Demaryius Thomas**, Eddie Royal, Kenny Britt, **Michael Crabtree** TE- Julius Thomas, Jordan Cameron, Vernon Davis, Virgil Green, **Charles Clay** CB- **Antonio Cromartie**, Brandon Flowers, Charles Peanut Tillman, Byron Maxwell S- **Devin McCourty** The ** ** is my indication that these signee's would make our team vastly better and place us into the Super Bowl contender category without question. and I will gladly explain each of them below: Demaryius Thomas would bring something to Baltimore that has never been here since 1996' and that is a for sure big bodied./ big play #1 WR. Some of the same goes for Michael Crabtree..very sure handed and would be respected as a #1 WR on a weekly basis.. maybe not as explosive as a Demaryius Thomas but explosive none the less.. I do not see us getting both btw. it would deff be one or the other if any at all.. Charles Clay while not the most popular of the TE's I listed and probably not the best either. One thing he does have over them is he is the youngest and doesnt have the prior history of injuries. The dude is a stud and would be affordable.. He could groom into something special with Flacco and Kubiak (God willing he stays) Antonio Cromartie.. Cromartie proved this year he is still a top cover corner in this league.. With Jimmy Smith coming back if we could get Cromartie to be the #2 on the other side of that.. And move Webb to a slot corner.. Hell if that was our lineup Saturday night I think we are traveling to Indy this weekend to play for a AFC championship, it would be that good. And lastly while I do have tons of optimism and faith in Terrance Brooks to be the long term answer for Baltimore at FS if you wanted an immediate and stable response now there is no doubt Devin McCourty is a top FS in this league and him next to Will Hill at SS could be larger than large.. So again while I am not guranteed we make all or even any of these moves.. I am simply stating the benefit of having each of them possibly come true..

Love the pick.. Lock up that Defense which wins championships. We played it well.. still can get a solid WR.. Allen Robinson.. Jordan Matthews still on the board.. Also some good OL are there.. Alabama OL , UVA OL still on the board.. Id look at one of them in the 2nd round, maybe move up.. RBs are at full depth as none were selected in the first round.. Well played Ozzie.. Keep workin!

Something tells me he will be the Daryl Smith of last year.. Good player on a bad team that we will bring to Baltimore.. Put the spotlight on em' and watch him shine!.. Way to go Ozzie. I have faith

I think if it becomes a bidding war for Steve Smith we wont lose we will simply back out.. Also, someone below mentioned Cromartie to replace Grahm.. Could be a classic Ozzie move late in FA.. I agree

If we get Steve Smith you can pretty much gurantee we turn right around and do all it takes to get Alex Mack out of Cleveland

There is finally good talent out there now to get that is younger instead of getting smith for a year or two.. kill two birds with one stones or else your re visiting the same issues every off season..

Charley Casserly (a former NFL GM) said it best on NFL network.. "In FA young and healthy is what you want to sign".. The reason he believes Monroe was a big signing over the likes of a Brandon Albert etc.. Same goes for S.Smith vs these other WRs.. If your going to spend money make it last..
