The Bills Jags game could be an early kickoff as that is when the clocks go back (I believe it is a week later in the states)
RiseNConquer Just because the Ravens don't want to play away from home doesn't mean they wont come over as an away game playing the likes of Miami, Jags etc. The Jags are over for 2 more years as the Home team with 3 games being played per season. I thought the Bengals could have come over this year as they negotiated thy could play a home game away from their stadium.
I have attended the last two international series in London and they have been great. The games are very mixed with jerseys from all the teams and generally played in good banter. I would love to see the Ravens come on over but only as an away game. The home teams are generally the weaker teams having trouble filling/improving their stadiums and are using the games as leverage (Jags poor attendance, Raiders/Miami want out of stadium).

Gillmore .. finally a player i wanted !!!
Jernigan makes no sense to me ... really not liking this draft so far. Feel we took Mosley too high, could have dropped back a few spots gained a third an still got him or choice of any safety. cant watch this anymore ....
Jernigan .... not happy with Moses still there
Moses Latimer Niklas or Fiedorowicz please
Personally with the board as is would have gone for Pryor or traded back with 49ers to draft Moses and gain picks. With ward off the board now no much at safety left .. Reynolds Bailey or Brooks
I am not knocking the pick of Mosley but do believe we could have drafted him a few places later. The way the draft is going I would have preferred to have drafted back with the 49ers to gain either both their 3rd round picks or their 2nd plus.
I like Zuttah's versatility in that he has played both guard positions and centre for Tampa whilst at Rutgers played both tackle positions. He could line up at left guard (Osemele moving to right tackle) centre or possibly to right tackle, the reason he moved to right tackle in college was because they switched to a zone-blocking system and needed his athleticism there.
Starting line up atm would be Monroe Osemele Zuttah Yanda Wagner with Gino Shipley and Jensen covering the centre positions. We could do with drafting a tackle to start/rotate with Wagner on the right and able to cover the left, if Reid is released I would take a second tackle.
Zuttah is versatile having played both guard positions and centre for the Buccs whilst at college he played at both tackle positions. I was interested to read one of the reasons he switched to right tackle was to better utilize his athleticism when Rutgers switched to a zone blocking scheme ... there are many scenarios. 1) play left guard kicking Osemele to Right tackle 2) start as centre 3) start at right tackle.
Signing Monroe was important and I believe we got him at a good price, will need to see how the contract is broken down further but this deal still leaves us with close to $16mil in cap space. I think we need to bring in a RT with Martin could be a possible target as he is still on his rookie contract (2014 is $1.3mil and 2015 is $1.5mil) so would be a low cost option and with his career seeming over in Miami they could be open to a low pick/player exchange.
Hire Kyle Shanahan as the offensive coordinator with Hostler as his assistant and Castillo offensive line coach. Linehan can work coach with the recievers, Zorn goes back as quarterbacks coach would just need a running backs coach for the offense. Defensively we need a secondary coach which Spagnuolo can help cover alongside his assistant duties.

My only disappointment in the draft was that we never selected Ekpre-Olomu with our last pick. We could have put him on IR for this year to heal up and get him ready for the following season.
