    I think the FA signings we made for this season really boosted our team this year more than the Draft did. Particularly Mike Wallace, although Weedle and Watson will be making big impacts as well.

    Seems to me that Oz and co. drafted for inventory and overall impressions rather than going after players that would make a impact coming into this season. That being said, I expect that we see Stanley stepping into the LT position as a rookie in addition to Correa making some appearances this year.

    Overall I think our team looks like its set to make some noise, especially with how our schedule is set. Backfield will still be a concern again unfortunately.

    I think that Arthur Brown is ready to step in and play beside CJ... he is the athletic type who can cover the field and play the pass. The knock on him is he needed to add bulk and be more stout at the point of attack (v RUN)... he has begun to grow into his frame and looks different then he did when he came into this league.... plus now we are asking him to play a different role (as CJ is now doing what we drafted Arthur to do)...His athleticism beside CJ will be fun to watch... (and Z Orr can be our sub on run downs or goal line beside CJ)!

    This would be ideal, but who knows whats happening with A.Brown. Honestly gave up on him last year..

    I see this being a defense heavy draft... I don't see us taking an offensive player until we get to comp picks... way to much talent on the defensive side of the ball not to select some insurance for the future in this draft...

    That's what I was thinking as well. Especially when we start talking about trading back, it makes a lot of sense.

    If we don't trade back, expect heavy deffense early on, but if we do than I could see us mixing a bit with a 2nd round receiver...only immediate spot I think we really need to upgrade besides LT.

    Personally hoping Tunsil or Ramsey falls to us. If not than I would vote on trading back even if Jack is there.

    It is Jason Cole, so take with a grain of salt, but...

    .@JasonColeBR says Ravens want to trade out of top 10 to get more picks between 11-50 where they see plenty of depth

    Interesting...guess we may not be to high on Bosa. Personally I think he will be the guy that lands at that spot with Jax taking Jack in front of us..

    I like how they said Freeney was too expensive, $870k base with sack incentives of a million dollars, which to me, 10 sacks is worth the million lol The giants just gave Vernon $17 million a year for 8 sacks per year so.... But anyway, I hope they explore that option as I think that he could come here for less than 2 million and would practically be a third down specialist in a rotation with Suggs, Doom, and our future first rounder Joey Bosa. Getting to the QB would no longer be a problem

    Did you mean future first rounder DeForest Buckner..?

    I'm glad we have a veteran back there, especially now that Will HIll is gone even though I did not really see him as much of a leader on our team. Really good off season despite the KO loss and Walker accident.

    These veterans are going to prove to be strong signings this year I guarantee it.

    Wallace will spend the day at the facility, and hopefully sign a prove it contract with incentives before he leaves.

    This would be ideal. Weddle AND Wallace would be great. I think both players would do a lot for both sides of the ball.
