Don't know where it's coming from but my gut is telling me we might actually have a shot at Ramsey. If it's false hope so be it, no matter what we're gonna get a stud. 

Can you guys please explain the love for Ramsey? I would understand if he was a turnover machine but he lacks that skill. I believe Myles Jack is our best option in the draft, not only can he thrive on the inside but if we end up drafting Scooby Wright in the 4th then Myles Jack can slide outside and start opposite of Suggs. 

The reports about his knee is hopefully our Ravens trying to get him to slide down just far enough for us to draft him.

i say we should draft Indiana OT jason spriggs over any OT in the draft..imo he is the best long term , not as polished as Tunsil and R. Stanley but better long term... Trade down with the jets ... Paxton lynch could be gone by 7 with the 49ers so that would push the jets to move up and us to move down to 20 with an additional almost guaranteed future 1st round and or 2016 2nd round 51st pick...think about it... we still grab a need and a possible future elite Pro Bowl LT who i say will be the best OT in the class in 2-3  years ...

 

If Jack and Ramsey are gone then I can see us moving back to #15 with the Titans. They get our 6th and we get their #15, 43,45 and next years 3rd. That would give them the franchise LT they want and need. We would miss out on 1 star player but we would add 2 extra picks out of the top 50 players in the entire draft. 

Personally if it's between choosing Tunsil and having 4 of the top 50 players I'm going to take that every time.

At first I hated the idea of taking Tunsil at #6 but if Myles Jack is gone he is the next best player to take. I am not sold on Ramsey being the Superstar they are making him out to be but that could be my fear of drafting another FSU Defensive Back.. Bosa in my opinion is identical to Clowney and I just don't see him making the instant impact. I will be Happy with Tunsil, Excited for Elliot and down right screaming for JOY if we end up with Jack.

If Tunsil is there for us at 6 I can see us trading back to #15 with the Titans. Titans have the extra two 2nd rounders they can give us this year from the Rams trade and We won't be falling too far down in the draft. If Myles Jack is still available like I'm hoping then he has to be our pick. He will be able to play both inside and outside linebacker and dominate at both positions. That means the Chargers would have to take Tunsil, Cowboys take Elliot, Jags take Ramsey and that leaves Myles Jack for us. He is by far the best player in the draft.

Love me some Bohehringer

That's what I'm saying, I would draft him with our #136 pick. He really impressed at his pro day and with his Size (6'4 220 lbs) and Speed (4.4 40yard dash)he is a matchup nightmare. Yes he is really raw but what are 4th round picks for? He can sit for a year to learn the speed of the game and next year when Steve Smith retires he can have a chance to start opposite of Breshard Perriman. That would give Flacco two great huge and fast targets to throw too. Crockett Gillmore and Maxx Williams in our 2 TE sets would be too much for any team to handle.

 If Zeeke is still on the board I hope we take him over Jack or Buckner.  If not, then trade down if we can find a partner. 

Sorry but if Jack is on the board it doesn't matter who else is there he will be our pick. I love Ezekiel Elliot and think he will have a great career but Jack is too great if a talent to pass up on.

Not only will him and CJ make the best LB duo in the NFL just like what the Niners had with Willis and Bowman but if we draft Scooby Wright with our pick at #104 like I'm hoping then Myles Jack has the versatility to slide outside and play opposite of Suggs. 

Personally I think Trent Richardson is going to be the best RB on our roster, Buck Allen coming in second. Trent was in a dark place and it happens to the best of us, he has turned things around and has the passion for football again. I can see him being a huge part of our Offense this year, sadly making Justin Forsett expendable.

While I'm sure you all enjoy arguing over speculation it is all for not. The offense has mostly scored enough to win many games over the past 2 years. It has been the defense that has not been able to hold on the late game leads. I predict Ozzie will go heavy on defense in this years draft.

I agree completely, unless there is a WR sitting there in round 2 that we can't pass on. Perriman will be a beast for us this year but we still need more youth at the position. DJax would be a nice addition if he is released.

Cross your fingers for another late contract dispute between Von Miller, his agent and the Denver Broncos; a phone call from Dumervil
to seal the deal.

I would rather cross my fingers about stuff that can actually happen.. Like Flacco creating more cap space for us allowing K.O and Tucker to be Ravens the next 5 years.

It's really a simple fix but they won't do it, Bring back the skill competition and stop playing the actual game. Everyone loved watching the competitions and hardly watched the actual game.

Perfect world we would get Ramsey in the 1st, Noah Spence in the 2nd and Oakman in the 3rd... I will be happy with any of them, as long as we draft smart this year we have a chance to stay at the top of the Division. But one more average draft and we will be fighting the Browns for last place again..

I am hoping we hire Ray Lewis to bring some life to this Defense as DC. Tell me there is not a man that knows this Defense or how to Play Like a Raven. If we even hired him as a Defensive Assistant it would be the best move this offseason any team makes.

We will make 2 major moves in the Free Agency by resigning K.O and Tucker. That will be enough to make me happy, Upshaw would be a great bonus but I wouldn't be sad seeing him get his big pay day.

I miss not being able to give a "thumbs up" to several good ideas and comments I really enjoy or agree with. I also miss finding out what people on her feel about my comments.

I still love you Sami ;)

I can't be mad at Ngata for his comments, he's got a year or two to make as much money as he can before he hits the real world.

I'm more concerned with urschel not focusing on his craft, I understand education is important but he has all the time int the world for a PhD after his career ends. Right now with his rookie contract he is being paid many times more than a full time college professor with a PhD. This reminds me of when Matt Elam spent his first offseason selling shoes at footlocker and came in ill prepared for his terrible sophomore season.

Huge difference between going back to school for a PHD and taking up a joke of a job. Urshel will be taking the min amount of classes and he does math problems for fun, its something that relaxes him.

I am hoping he is the starting LG next year. With Flacco's contract freeing up some money it will allow us to resign K.O and move him to LT. Trade Monroe for a late round pick to get out under his contract, (please tell me if im wrong but I thought that's how it works) and use the money saved to resign Tucker. I would love to keep Upshaw because I think he is really underrated but I can see him leaving for a bigger pay day.

If another player pulls a Matt Elam and gets a Foot Locker "job" this offseason I'm flying out to Baltimore and kicking him in the nuts

I am really excited for the future of our Defensive Line. If we draft Deforest Buckner with our first pick we could have the best Defensive Line in the NFL. Buckner, Davis, Williams, Jernigan and Smith is a great rotation that will cause problems all game long.

Has the thought crossed anyone elses mind of Frazier replacing Pees, if he doesn't have this Defense playing the way we all know they should be? I am excited to see if we end up with Ramsey or Hargreaves..

I hope everything is okay with Clarence Brooks! Our players absolutely love him and he is a true Raven.

Oh and solid signings, awesome to see they are making moves already. Shows that its going to be a promising offseason.

Okay I might be a little crazy but how can you not include Tuckers contract in this article? I know he isn't going anywhere but he is a contract that has do be figured out this offseason. Oh and Monroe will be playing for us next year, I love K.O but some team is going to pay him major money to leave us.

Sizzle, its okay I haven't been in the greatest mood either knowing the other team is in the playoffs and we are not.. Enjoy the offseason but please come back, we not only need you but we all love you!

Sincerely, RavenNation..

I think Marlon Brown hasn't been added to the IR yet because "sucking" is not an eligible injury

Marlon has the potiental to be great for us but he is lacking the confidence that he needs. Who knows that could change this offseason and he could put up crazy numbers next year and all you people talking down about him will be finally giving him the credit he deserves.

I don't understand the Ryan Mallet thing at all...

Where are all the Bryn Renner fans? lol

I am a big fan of his and would actually cheer louder for our Offense than having Pick Six Schaub leading our team. If we don't have hopes that Renner can lead our team in the future we are forced to spend a 4th or higher on a QB that can.

I am hoping West works out great for us but unfortunately that would mean Talifero would be expendable. I think Talifero has a bright future and hope we don't give up on him too early.

Matt "Pick 6" Schaub will guarantee our top 5 pick next year.

Cant do any worse than the last two guys we had returning punts.. That's what this season is about now, just looking forward to next year..
