Since there are no separate contr5acts for the regular seasons and the playoffs, you don't have much of a choice: you can get a QB who's a Peyton Manning in the regular season, but a Jamarcus Russell in the playoffs - like Andy Dalton or Matt Ryan, or one who's an Alex Smith in the regular season, but becomes a Peyton in the playoffs - like Eli manning or our very own Joe Flacco. I personally would prefer the latter... Exactly... I am not down playing the importance of the regular season... but championships are won in January - February... and that's when Joe is at his best... every post season he turns it up a notch... I will take a mediocre regular season and a championship rather than a strong regular season and a piss poor playoff run any day

Really hope JB takes this opportunity and make the most of it... he really has shown good solid hands... and run after the catch ability.. really came on the last few games of last season pretty much took snaps and targets away from Givens... I know he's a possession receiver but I really like what he brings to the group... 3rd year is a charm

I am sorry... but the Tunsil vs Stanley debate is beyond worn out... there is a lot that goes into making a decision... there are two things that go hand in hand... you have to have ability and availability... talent does you no good sitting on the sideline or I.R. I can think that also figures into the equation... from what I can remember Tunsil hasn't played a full season in college... what makes me believe that he will suddenly become reliable???

No problem with choir boys... as long as they are ball players... who are physical...

<3 Kaufusi... love this guys versatility... and variety of pass rush moves...

I side with them on this one... Ramsey has outstanding potential... but we had way to many holes in the roster to part with a third rounder to move up two spots in the draft... not worth it... especially since pass rush is a bigger need than corner... I don't care how good of a corner you are... if you consistently give QB's time in the pocket they are going to pick you apart... plus I am a little bit biased... I really like Kaufusi 3>

Not sure why so many are down on this draft but this draft hit every need other than ILB... we got better on the OL... the d-line is stacked... I like Kaufusi as an immediate starter to replace Canty... It will be a good battle between him and Guy.. Correa can be Kruger 2.0 even though I think Correa is a better athlete... the RB selected makes for a tough call in terms of which RB's to keep I honestly think that we have a very good collection of RB's... WR smh... what a competition that will be.. JB was balling last year and he's got a little bit of nasty when he's run blocking... I can't remember what game it was but he was executing a chip block... and knocked the LB of his feet... plus he primarily became the no 2 WR in an injury riddle season...

I agree with you... the only thing I would have love to see was us to take Buckner but if they had Stanley rated higher then I get it... I am not a fan of reaching for players just cause you have a position of need... I feel like you do that you miss out on a player fits what you do... best player available... I am truly excited and can't wait for these guys to get to work... OTA's are around the corner...

There is a lot that goes into drafting a player... you have to take into account that yes the individual might be an outstanding player but they might not fit what you want him to do i.e. J Clowney.. no question that he's a freak of nature... and worthy of the number one pick... but what has he done so far in his career... nothing to write home about... does that means he's a bust... not at all... he might not be comfortable doing what they want him to do... that's why scheme fit is so important... every pick so far is this draft has been the type of player that the Ravens want... tough hard nose guys who give everything they got... other than Stanley, who is going to be a great tackle, I would have love Buckner... but Kaufusi is a more versatile player at this point... so I love that pick...hands down my most favorite pick other than the young man from Navy who should be a dynamic return guy... Kamalei has a motor like no other and Judon is a sleeper pick... if these guys live up to their potential... we should have a nice pass rush front.. lets not forget Timmy J can rush the passer... I think our secondary will be better this year once the pass rush improves...

I am not a fan of reaching for players either... They tried to trade up for Ramsey... didn't get him... tried to trade back into the first one to get another corner... didn't get him... so what exactly do you want them to do??? select a corner that doesn't fit what they want to do defensively??? Every player selected meets an area of need... then you gotta realize that you have players who need to be developed for next year when you have people that are up coming free agents... i.e Zadarius was drafted to replace McPhee and will also replace Upshaw... so you gotta plan for the future... there were only two LB that made sense to draft... Darron Lee or Miles Jack... they could have played opposite of Mosley... we need an ILB that can cover and allow Mosley to blitz and stuff the run rather than have him in coverage... that what we need and that player wasn't there other than Jack... and after Perriman... I understand their reluctance to draft him after the injury filled season that they had... so I think we will be fine... they will find a player...

I guess one of the Safeties will drop down and Play the WIL LB since we haven't drafted one... I like the guy from Navy... should be a great return guy... was wondering when we were going to draft a return guy...

Another RB??? That's brings the total to 6...

ok... now we are cooking with gas... loving the last two picks!!!

Really like the day two picks... day three has started off in the wrong direction...

Thought they would select a WR with return ability... but what do I know... that's why I watch the games...
