  1. I agree 100%. We need FS badly, but since we took Elam in 1st last year, I see Ravens going Offense with 1st pick. Could it be TE Ebron?
  2. Well, Coach Harbough has cleared the issue today in his statement. LT Monroe - LG Osemele - C Zuttah - RG Yanda - RT Wagner Also mentioned was Jah Reid will compete with Wagner for RT spot. They have high hopes for Wagner and it shows here. He is 5th rounder from last year and seems to be on his way up. So, those who were saying Drafting RT in 1st round, guess what? Not gonna happen. I believe Ravens will draft O-lineman, but RT spot got pushed on the back burner, maybe like 3rd or 4th or 5th round.
  3. My point was Its better to have solid backup plan, just in case 1st round draft pick doesn't pan out in 8 weeks of NFL. And Yes, I would be Ok if we take O-Lineman in 1st round. I prefer TE Ebron if he is still there at 17. But I admit taking good RT could help us as well.
  4. I don't dispute that. Are you saying all these players were starters in Week 1, 2013 season How many of them became FULL TIME STARTERS before Week 7? And Im glad you mentioned Giants, who lost their first 6 games in large part by poor performance of.theiir O-line. Yeah, they got much better later but too late to make Playoffs.
  5. I like the idea of KO being at RT at least for now. LG spot is wide open, Shipley was there last time and was somewhat okay and Im not sure if Gino is any better. I like to see if Jensen or Wagner or Jah Reid can be a starter there. One of these guys have to step up and separate himself from others. Its going to be interesting Training Camp.
  6. And before some folks.start.taking about Talents.and Playmakers and Pro-Bowl Free Agents I just say 2 words for y'all - Philadelphia Eagles. How many times Did they go to the Superbowl and Won in last 15 years ? Last time they were in Superbowl with T.O. Owens and LOST. So, don't worry and be happy - BALTIMORE RAVENS 2 TIMES.SUPERBOWL CHAMPS AND GOING.FOR.THREE SOON. GOOD NITE.
  7. Well, yeah, that guy did pretty good for rookie despite the fact Romo.was running for his life on most of the plays. And he was still over-reach because they could of.drafted him in 2nd round instead of 1st. Maybe Jerry forgot about his team also needed A DEFENSE, but anyways they got their plans and we got ours.
  8. I agree to some degree. Look, if TE Ebron is still on the board at 17, you gotta take him. But if not, who would you take, BPA? I just got the feeling if Ozzie's man is not on the board, he will trade our 1st rounder for additional pick. He has history of that and I wouldn't second guessed him there.
  9. Who? Never heard of him
  10. Come on fellas, you trying to draft a rookie and make him a Pro-Bowler in 8 weeks? This is not Madden Football. Not every rookie you draft will turn into a starter, remember Sergio Kindle - Raven's 1st round pick few years ago? Or how about Payton Manning's Rookie year? Yeah, Payton looked pretty crappy and team went 4-12 that year. PLAYOFFS? WHAT PLAYOFFS?
  11. Drafting RT is certainly good idea, but no Rookie will digest playbook and become a starter overnjght. Most likely be spending time on bench or Practice Squad for 8 weeks, at least. LG spot is wide open - for someone who is familiar.with system or NFL experience - Shipley, Wagner, Jensen, Reid or whoever, as long as they get the job done.
  12. Agreed 100%. Hey maybe the Colts would knock off the Broncos and Ravens would knock off Pafsies and then we could have AFC Championship Game RAVENS against COLTS. Wouldn't that be great?
  13. Well, how was our O-Line when we went on the SuperBowl run, was it scary? What was it? LT McKinnie LG Osemele? C Birk RG Yanda RT Oher And somehow they made it work. As long we can duplicate that we might make another run at it. And it starts with Winning Our Division.
  14. Hahaha, tolucaraven is talking out of bis butt, dat is 100% YES. Dean Pees would never made comment like that to anyone, anyway I see the O-Line forming on the horizon LT Monroe - LG Shipley maybe? - C Zuttah - RG Yanda - RT Osemele
  15. I think thats going "little" overboard. Latt Birk stated Gino was "good player with growing pains". The question is How Much Pain Can Ravens Fans Take to watch him in the game? It may be more beneficial to all of us to keep him on bench as a backup. Shipley is a Question Mark. When playing Center spot he was at times worst than Gino. But when he stepped in at LG he held his own, supprisingly. He wasn't great, but he was somewhat okay. But when you combine Gino and Shipley next to each other in the middle - terrible results. But I still say Shipley deserves a shot at LG starter spot.
  16. I see some folks saying Tampa Bay O-Line sucked last year. Well, ours did too. Do we have any comparison stats, how did they ranked? I know Bucs had couple.games where our Ex-Raven 3rd string Bobby Rainey was over 100 yds rushing and 2TDs. Makes me wonder how "bad" their Line really was?
  17. Yes and Yes. Zuttah is a legit starter. We moving KO to RT which makes LG wide open. So even if Gino somehow wins Center job, which is very doubtful, Zuttah could start at LG spot. Or Zuttah starts at Center, Shipley takes.LG spot and Gino is on bench. This signing upgrades O-Line without breaking the bank which makes it a beautifull thing. Kudos to Ozzie.
  18. Yeah, I read it too, Zuttah was ranked 22nd Center by PPF. Report also said Zuttah ALLOWED ZERO SACKS IN 2013 SEASON. THAT'S INCREDIBLE! Being ranked 22nd and not allowed any sacks - Im not sure how the ranking works, but I sure Love The Zero Sacks Allowed. How many Gino allowed last.year? Well, message is clear, there will be competition at Center in TC and Gino will have to step up big time or he will be sitting on bench.
  19. Eastern Shore Maryland RAVEN here. You gotta go little more towards Salisbury & Ocean City, MD - Plenty Ravens there
  20. SUPERBOWL BANDWAGON starts here and I'm driving

  21. is free agent who is available to one team only - the Ravens

  22. Fly, this is Doc. Like your post about "Time To Take the Trash Out" I would highly recommend it as mandatory reading material for all of the "newbies", before they attempt to make their 1st post. It would certainly make our heads hurt little less.

    Sincerely, DocMartin

  23. When the Raven fan goes to the game in Foxboro, Patsieland, he is a real RAVEN FAN
