Havent even decided if Im watching it yet. The match up is not interesting, Im tired of Cheaters having a easy ride through cupcakeville afc least. Falcons are a fluke franchise with no brand recognition or history. It would a been a lot more interesting a PackervPats matchup, BradyvRodgers, or really anything else has great story line and interest then this game. Cowboys,Hawks, Etc. I honestly just cant wait for it to be over, onto the draft, orioles, caps, terps, wiz, etc.

In the Next 5-10 years or so.. Ravens will have the largest Video board any stadium on earth. In stead of a 200 ft video board which is nice, Stadium wide video board, instead of just at the endzones... Have 2 at 50 yard line opposing sides. I dont like it coming off a bad season but I understand importance of stadium value,modernizing the stadium experience etc But you ultimately gotta win, I pretty high tech stadium means nothing if you keep missing the playoffs

Mrc724, its funny you mention Zeus because Zeus jr or Baby Zeus plays for Oklahoma Sooners and looks like a monster. I sure Ravens would have eyeballed him in the draft, to bad he decided to return to college for junior season

Would the Ravens sign Eric Berry? He just said hes not playing on franchise tag again. I know I know, probably a 2% chance kc lets him get away but without a contract he could sit out. And there was the Dumervil fax issue. So hypothetically Berry doesnt re-sign with kc, Ravens have to try to sign him. 28 years old, much younger then 31 year old Weddle when signed and playing like a Ed Reed esque free safety.

Id say they want more Maulers. More in the mold of the JO,Yanda,KO lineage. Just mean man on man maulers 320-350lb monster road graders. Moton OT is a perfect choice 6-5 330lb monster orobably 3rd rndr. Nico Siragusa, Jay Guillermo OG/C, Dorian Johnson, all 315 to 330 plus OG 6'3 and up So Ravens will have plenty of big Maulers to choose from and now that it looks like a they will getting back to their roots with run game and defense as jobs are on the line. I expect Big boys and a vastly improved oline

Moderator 3, "So did Zuttah. Your point?" I know Pro Bowl is devalued to a extent because Star players are sitting out and 3rd and 4th alternate players like Zuttah fill in. But have the common sense to understand Pro Bowl still is how you determine the best in the nfl. Ray,Ed,JO are not hofrs if they make 0 pro bowls. Yanda, sizzle likely on the path to hof. So point was Clowney,Bosa,Chandler Jones, Mack etc all very good defensive players. They would definitely upgrade Ravens defense

ConquerorWorm, you need to take a chill pill. Of that whole list Donald, Leonard Williams, Sheldon Richardson are the only pure DTs interior guys. Bosa,Clowney,Mack,Ray,Ford,Cox,Perry,Mercillus,Jones all 3-4 olbr or 4-3 DE both of which can play in Ravens system And virtually all of them made a pro bowl. So chill out, just because it doesnt fit your narrative all the time

Heres a bunch of 1st round hits last 4 years on pass rushers, interior and outside since supposedly too many have been busts. Bosa Clowney Mack Donald L.Williams S.Ray D.Ford F.Cox W.Mercilus N.Perry S.Richardson C.Jones All 1st round picks almost everyone made a pro bowl. Thats not busting. So if you want gamechanging outside especially rusher likely take them in rnd 1

ConquerorWorm, whats your deal? Do you try to bother people? Every time you respond to me, its like your trying to be Nastrdamas or something. Why dont Ozzie just come to you for who to pick, and how the draft will go down, who will be the busts etc. Jeez let it be.

I'll answer it for DeCosta.. No they dont have replacements for Sizzle or Dum. Correa looks like a bust, Koufusi too, Judon is a hit in the 5th round but is he anything more then a Mcphee or Kruger? Which is very nice player, a 10 sack guy, but eventually let go by Ravens. If you want a replacement.. I believe they said it before, you got a take 1 likely in the 1st round. So Ravens will have options, Barnett,Mckinley,Harris etc pick 1

My only problem with a Howard pick would be we have like 5 TEs. Even if we released 1 or 2, still have 3. Pitta,Watson,Boyle,Gillmore,Waller. Much more prefer the Pass rusher, ilbr at 16. Or Cook rb I have seen mocks that have Ravens landing Reuben Foster ilbr 16, A beast replacement for Orr. Imagine 2 best ilbrs in Bmore. Ive seen Cook at 16, a gamechanging rb. I welcome that. Ive also seen Nick Barnett a Elite Edge Rusher. Id be cool with any of those. A slew of others too like CB,Pass rushers but especially those

Playmakers... ok. There will be playmakers every round. Mike Williams,Dalvin Cook, Davis West Mich WR, Howard TE all possibly 16th picks Rnd 2- Dede Westbrook, Amarah Darboh, Smith Schuster WRs But are they going offense or defense?

I wouldnt mind a Harrison type deal, 5 for 46. Thats avg of 9mil. Now do they Ravens value him that much? We'll see soon.

Looks good on paper,

n#7, I agree they need Dline. They need pass rush most of all. I think they want to and are going to try to retain B.Williams, now if that price gets too high were going to find out how much they really like Pierce,Carl Davis, Willie Henry. They will either ride or dies with that group. I dont think so, or find a NT/DT via draft or cheap vet in F/a maybe a Wilfork type on couple year deal to help vs run

I dont know any of these guys outside of Ben Boulware. I wouldnt mind him as a late round pick or undrafted free agent. I heard some scouts say what Mink just said. Undersized, 6 ft and does he have nfl level speed? But if hes a 5rnd pick through undrafted F/A its not as risky. The guys Im more interested in, and I have seen pop up in connection to Ravens in recent mocks since Orr retirement. 16th pick would have to be. Lock stud, Ruben Foster Bama ilbr. Imagine having Mosley and Foster 2 studs. That would be like Kuechly and Davis or Bowman and Willis before Willis retired. Other guy who also could be stud 2nd to 3rd rnd projection Raekwon McMillon OSU ilbr

I like names I know like Feeney, Pocic. But I also like names I saw play who are not on the list I know are good like Moton OT Western Mich 3rd rnd projection Dorian Johnson OG Late 2nd likely to eary 4th rnd projection Nico Siragusa OG 3rd to 4th rnd projection Greg Pyke OG 5th rnd projection Eflein OC 3rd to 4th rnd Projection

Good luck. Im hopeful but reality says no. More likely draft a 4th or 5th round NT/DT and add to Pierce,Davis,Hopefully Henry shows something with more time

@Saxxin, you realize they had 15 combined sacks from Dumervil, Jernigan, Sizzle last yr. Mostly from Sizzle. Great pass rush helps a 2ndry. Who knows Dum still might be cut. They need another franchise edge rusher. Ryan Anderson is nice but if they are projecting him out as Upshaw no thanks, we dont need an edge setter, we need sack artists. What about 1st round selections at 16 like Barnett,Solon Thomas, etc Or rnd 2 selections like Mckinley,Smoot,Devonte Fields, Tj Watt etc. I know ozzie love Bama, but get the best players. Outside of Julio,Cooper,Mosley. Not many Bama guys turn into studs

This offseason will decide the futures of a lot of people. I will say so far I like the coaching hires which seem to indicate getting back to Ravens DNA Smashmouth run game & Defense. But, Between Draft and Free Agency Ozzie has to beef up the Oline, Pass Rush,Cbs,Ilbr, Wr Pass Rush,Cbs, likely coming from early picks in draft Oline mid to late round picks and maybe a trade or Free Agent pick up Wr free agency, mid to late round pick Ilbr draft

Never heard of Douglas but top 4 White, King,Lewis, Sutton. Ive seen play either vs Terps in Big 10 or Natnl tv, all 4 4 be fine pick ups. Mocks Ive been looking at have them as early to mid 2nd rnders for King,White, to late 2nd to 3rd rndrs for Lewis, Sutton

Im full focused on draft couple months away.. Dream draft 1.0 Ravens Rnd 1 16- Rb Cook, option 2 Defensive Gamechanger preferably pass rush, Barnett DE/OLBr, Thomas De/Dt, Ruben Foster ilbr, Peppers Lbr/S,Hooker S, Tabor Cb, Sidney Jones Cb Trade back few spots get another pick, get a Tj Watt, Harris,McKinkey DE/OLBrs Rnd 2- Watt,McKinley,Ryan Anderson, Devonte fields De/olbr Rnd 3 2 pks OT Taylor Moton, Dorian Johnson OG, option 2 Dede Westbrook,Amarah Darboh, Travin Duval, Malichi Dupree Wrs, Samaje Perine,Donte Foreman,Gallman, Rbs Budda Baker, etc cbs Rnd 4

Im wondering because this draft seems to be a deeper draft in the CB, OL, and overall Defensive players draft, if Ozzie would consider sliding back from 16th to 20-23 area if he can pick up an extra 3rd. That way you should have 3 3rds, with the KO comp pick and original pick. And at 20-23 you may not be able to get Cook, Corey Davis, Mike Williams which could 20% chance slide to 16th, but early 20s still would have your pick up top Cbs like Jones,Jackson,Maybe Tabor still there, pass rushers Tj Watt, Harris,McKinley, etc

Pass rush,CB,. Ilike seeing Ryan Anderson from Bama he was a beast in cgampionship game, but I want some1 sooner like Barnett, Harris etc with our 16th pick

A lot of busts too. Only a couple hrs Ko,Yanda,Flacco,Grubbs, How bout this Courtney Upshaw who may win another ring in about a week. Should a kept him around obviously a winning player But a lot of busts too
