I think the whole BPA thing is a little overblown... at least in the early rounds. I dont think it is purely BPA, but BPA based on need.
You guys make a compelling case for him. Based on information provided here, I could see the Ravens taking him because he could help the oline when needed or be the chain mover needed. Essentially killing 2 birds with 1 stone.
That said, we have loads if young TE talent already on the team. While he could be a generational talent, I just think there are more dire needs, but hey, Alabama and BPA right?

Returner?

5. If you are Mangold, why the heck would you take less than half of what you are used to making and risk your body at 33?
For the love of the game man, for the love of the game...

I could see the Jets taking Tribuski, but I dont think theyd have to trade up for him. They definitely would have to give up more than he said they would.
And just when you think youve seen the worst mock ever, PFF says hold my beer.
Jets trade up to 2nd for Tribuski. Jags selected Deshaun Watson. I stopped reading after that, didn't even look to see who he had the Ravens taking.

They would be the same age.
Ravens love Yanda at guard too and kicked out to T when we needed.

Problem is his issues off the field which aren't even really that concerning. I mean getting banned from the league for drinking alcohol after the league year was over just because he was on probation is really rediculous in my opinion.
I think if you put him with a playoff contender like Baltimore I wouldn't be surprised if he shot straight. I mean a 6th is a low pick and you would be getting a player who proved he can hang by putting up a 1600 yard season. I actually would like that idea.
But I do believe Josh Gordon is actually a free agent now which means that the Ravens wouldn't even have to give a pick to Cleveland. Give him an incentive based deal worth up to $3 million. Low cost high reward.
I would love to see Josh Gordon here.
Please tell me the last time a team traded within their division... please.

As for urban he is another chris canty.. Brandon williams is the next haloti ngata...dl is good to go..we should draft a RB in Fornette if he drops or Garret bolles OT or WR's John Ross and corey davis
Lets not get too far ahead of ourselves. BK hasnt even played a down yet. BW is good but hes not Ngata.

I am not a draft guru. I don't follow college football at all so I won't engage in an effort where I am ignorant. My opinions would carry very little weight. If the guys that do this for a living (mock draft guys) can't get it right almost ever, then what chance do I have?
You understood that?
11 minutes ago, Ravens559 said:WR's John ross and corey davis are great fits at 16... If not then draft OLB hasaan reddick or OL Garrett Bolles..
Theres a lot of talk about Reddick going before Foster now because of what Foster did at the combine.
Well that puts things in perspective. It sucks, but cant really complain about it. Id just like to know how much money they are saving by shutting the boards down.
Are other NFL teams shutting down message boards?
I didn't see one on Tampa's official site, I didn't see one for the Steelers either, unless its under Steelers Nation Unite.
Ill pay a subscription, but we better get some pretty bomb emojis.
Just saw Casserly has us taking WR Ross at 16 in his March 7th mock. His reasoning was, "Flacco gets much needed speed at receiver."
Are you serious? Does he not know who our top 2 receivers are?
This is why I hate mocks by the media.
Corey Davis still available too.
Trying to have a conversation on Facebook is going to be like if we took all the forums on this board and combined them into one thread with no mods.
Think about it...
The Texans also gave the Browns a high pick in that trade.
No one trades within divisions ever anyway.
Even if we did it, the only person we could possibly pick up worth anything is the oft injured Romo who is like 37.
Im just saying Steve Smith and Wallace were praising Harbaugh for letting them "be them." If Steve isnt a brash person with a dominant personality, I dont know who is.

I wouldnt expect a response, it is essentially a way to flood their emails and bring it to the forefront.
Who knows if we went after a receiver or not. Im curious why youd like Torrey over Wallace. Theres still the draft and TC cuts.
Lol someone got triggered.
I dont know bout you guys, but I still have my happy time.
