  1. Down vote me all you want but answer these two questions and see if I am right

    Has Flacco been missing receivers all year?

    Has Flacco been throwing off his back foot, almost as if he is scared to plant and drive the football?

    List of a FEW QBs who have been better than Flacco this year: based off QBR

    Cody Kessler

    Brian Hoyer

    Kirk Cousins

    Blaine Gabbert

    Alex Smith

    Trevor Simeon

    Heaven forbid we go away from Flacco

    -2

  2. The only thing I would change about Flacco is his tendency to check down too much. Although some of that may have been due to Trestmans playcalling. Other than that you guys do remember we have a superbowl MVP at QB right?

    Back to the question.

    1. Rodgers

    2. Carr (based on age)

    3. Big Ben (sadly)

    4. Russell Wilson 

    5. Cam (realistically he is a better qb but I hate his look at me persona and he shrinks when things arent going his way.)

    Notable QBs Missing:

    Brady (I hate Brady, therefor I would never want him on this team). 

    Brees (too old)

    Palmer (old)

    Dalton (cant win a playoff game)

    1. Center: said this for months before we saw zuttah self destruct. 

    -loved ethan pocic but he has been reportedly inconsistent, maybe his height is becoming a problem for him in the SEC. havent dug to find the other prospects yet.

    2. WR: steve smith is a starter and gone next year, aiken is likely gone next year, mike wallace is on a short term contract, perriman is still a question mark, aside from them we have... chris moore who has dropped as many balls as hes caught

    -havent taken even a quick look at the wr class yet, been paying more attention to the DL edge and DB class.

    3. edge rusher: another year for suggs who appears to be a total nonfactor in the pass rush, another year for dumervil and another injury as well, and with a seeming change in philosophy and more use of a 4down front, dumervil could find himself an afterthought. ZDS has been a huge disappointment, hes made very little progress and plays way too downhill, he cant bend into the pocket at all, judon looks legit, but we'll be losing more than we gain 

    -tim williams looks a good bit like leonard floyd who im a big fan of, jonathan allen is a legit hybrid type player, i think hes got a good chance to end up the 2nd best defender out of this class after garrett. im keeping an eye on charles harris who needs to show consistency.

    4. outside CB: jimmy appears to have taken a slight step back, understandable with the injury, but hes still beyond adequate, we are good on one side as long as hes healthy, but shareece wright is still so incredibly up and down that his play will likely be on of the main deciding factors each week. 

    -adoree jackson, who may be playing himself out of our range, looks like a total stud, i was stuck on tredavious white for a while but jackson has looked really good, he is an absolute freak of an athlete and has good cover skills and appears scheme diverse, also offers a lot as a returner, dude could probably play WR if asked to. im still a big tredavious white fan. desmond king to me is a versatile ball hawking safety, peppers is a tyrann mathieu type of player for me, an attacking rangey safety who moves all over the field. 

    5. DT/DE hybrid: im not sold on kaufusi when he returns from injury, thats one pick i wasnt a fan of at the time, i convinced myself to like the pick, but with him not playing i find myself disliking the pick again, i wouldnt be surprised if hes a regular healthy scratch come next year. we have to prepare ourselves for the possibility of jernigan leaving, i doubt we will let it happen but its possible, and i think bwill is gone next year and we have his replacement in pierce but we will need to swap the size and bulk of guys like urban and williams with explosion and pass rush and penetration. 

    -malik mcdowell, if we are truly using a lot more 43, then id like him in a late-pick first round scenario, hes very disruptive, athletic, long, explsive, and plays clean and refined, he is quite undersized though. jonathan allen is by far the best player in this role. 

    Suggs is on pace for 16 sacks?

    3 games-3 sacks

  4. At first I was bummed because I wanted the next great Ravens defender at 6. Seeing how both Bosa and Ramsey were gone and Jack's knee is apparently a bigger concern than I thought, it was left between a trade back, Stanley and Tunsil. Apparently nobody called and Tunsil scares me too much. I am just afraid of what he will do with all the free time in the offseason and money that these young guys all of a sudden obtain. Leaving us with Stanley. The more I think about the pick however , the more I like it. This protects the Franchise QB, helps the run game, and solidifies one of the most important spots on the field for hopefully a decade. I think in 2-3 years we will look back on this pick and thank the Lord that we got a pro bowl LT! Just get a stud defender in the 2nd! Spence would look great in purple and black...

  5. Cant believe it. As a football talent I always had great hope for Tray and thought he would do well for the Ravens down the line. As a person, never heard anything bad about him. He was the same age as me and makes you really think about all the blessings you have in your life. Prayers go out to his family. He will always be a raven and part of ravens nation. Gone way too soon.

    I think we should wear a patch on the jerseys this season to remember him and pay our respects. Or just a #25 sticker on the helmet or something. RIP Tray

    HILL/WEDDLE WAS going to be one of the best Safety Tandems in the game..... i'm mind blown. we can never have the best anything.....

    Eh to be fair we did have the best all-time MLB/FS pairing for 10 years. Still, this cut sucks

    I may be in the minority but I don't like it for the price.  4 years, 26M to add a 14th safety to the roster.  I guess we'll see how many safeties are getting cut soon.  I'm guessing Lewis, Elam, and Hill.

    For the record I'm fine with the player, just not the price

    Why on earth would we cut hill? He was a top 5 caliber SS last year
