To be honest I don't see why everyone loves Ogbah, finally got around to watching a bit of his tape and does he only know how to bull rush?
Considering our recent sobering reminder that Flacco is in fact mortal and can get injured just like anyone else, I really hope we draft a QB at least in the mid rounds. I really hope that guy is Jacoby Brissett from NC State, big guy with a big arm and doesn't make many mistakes, also really good at scrambling and getting out of trouble. I really like the guy and I think he can be had in round 4.
I'll just say it: I don't think Ross should have been waived. He's been a darn good returner and has contributed some on offense. I think this is a knee jerk reaction, sure he fumbled for the second time this past Sunday but really the first fumble he had shouldn't have been called a fumble in the first place. And what do we need another TE for?
Ross has the history of fumbling the ball as return man. I'm sure The Ravens were aware of that and it happened in a game The Ravens needed to win. He lost his kick return job and wasn't being used much at all as a receiver besides fake end around
Watch A winning team will pick him up and he will succeed
Can we please make a major change now? We can't get worse, Pees out would be move in the right direction, Trestman is on thin ice as it is.
I think we can officially say that bringing back Asa was a good move for ST. Blocked FG this week with an absolutely insane jump on the snap and a blocked punt against the Cardinals, I think he's proven his worth on ST.
Should we shop Pitta for a late round pick or in a player trade when he gets back? Doesn't seem to be much room for him anymore, Gillmore has come on strong and both Boyle and Williams have had great flashes.
The Ravens can't trade Pitta since it will actually due harm to their cap than good

He will most probably retire before the end of the season.
I feel so bad for the FO, cuts this year are going to be so hard. So much young talent coming in through the draft and i like a lot of these UDFAs, namely Easton, Allen, Worthy, and Monroe. From the looks of things they can all do some real damage given the chance. It seems we'll be waving bye to some familiar faces like Tyson and McClellan to make room.
Cuts this year are going to be so tough, I really like a lot of these UDFA signings, wouldn't be surprised if we part ways with a familiar face or two
i could see Mclellab getting cut
All thos receivers gotta fight for they spot... excited to see who proves themselves during TC-preseason
If you stock up on talent, then the top 53 deserve their spots. The coaches doesn't hesitate to cut drafted players.
The more i watch of Tray Walker the more i like. Guy needs work but given a year he will be darn good with some coaching. You can't teach size and mindset and Walker has both. Gotta love corners that aren't afraid to hit.
If Gregory is still on the board at our pick (no trade up) would you grab him? I'm seriously doubting i would, guy sounds like he needs a Rolando McClain year to get his life back in order, a couple weeks ago he was a consensus top 5 pick but in light of his problems he may need to just take a year
Seems like the unlikely star of the draft so far is Laken Tomlinson. Really hope the kid makes it, i think we saw the future "man of the year"
It's pretty funny/sad that if you go read articles about our first round pick grade or whatever, every other comment is about Perriman's hairline. I think he needs to ditch the dreads, they don't go well with the receding hairline, not like its a bad thing, yah can't control it, genetics suck sometimes
Lots of great players still on the board, can't wait for tomorrow. I'm iffy on Perriman but i think he'll turn out just fine. Even if you don't like him just keep in mind that one player doesn't make or break a class. Just look at the Elam draft class, when you have a GM like Ozzie you will find players in all 7 rounds so don't get hung up on one in particular.
Unlike a lot of people i wouldn't mind Funchess if he's available in the second. Williams and Walford are more ready right away but Funchess' potential is interesting
i would like him in the 2nd. would be a great pick
The only issue is he'll work mostly out of the slot, essentially a move tight end, and the Ravens already have Camp for the slot, unless they want Funchess to play TE and play inline, also
would like to see chris conley in the black and purp
Just started watching some tape on Landon Collins and after a couple minutes i found myself paying more attention to Bama's other safety Perry, i gotta say I'm a fan
I also had the same problem when watching Strong. I chose the Strong vs Peters game and just watched Peters
strong and peters were actually quite evenly matches, nice back and forth between the 2, not strongs fault his qb couldnt make the ball come within 10 yards of him everytime he targeted him lol
And you know Ozzie loves the Bama Boys!
If Landon Collins is on the board at our pick i can see Ozzie pulling the trigger, as much as I'd hate to take ANOTHER safety. He's a guy that shouldn't be available when we pick but might because the teams that need a safety above us have bigger needs. He's super talented and wouldn't have to start right away, If Elam continues to disappoint and/or Hill can't be retained he'd give us options. Just saying....Ozzie could deem him BPA. Just food for thought
All these re-signings (and the one signing) at safety may mean we won't look for a safety this draft which I'm not necessarily opposed to. I mean we do have Hill, Elan, and Brooks who are still young and very recently drafted, plus we've resigned Levine and newly acquired Lewis, theres a lot of potential in that group, adding another may make us overcrowded
Give me Amos out of those guys
Well, at least we'll have enough safeties to plug in if all our corners get injured again.
Trawick is pretty solid too tho if he gets a chance by learning from the Saftey VETS, Hill and Lewis will better Elam as well. Maybe one or 2 more safteys will be drafted. I dont like the signing of melvin tho.
Polamalu more instinctive than Reed? because he jumped over the line one time? by all means lets all forget the 100 other times he tried that move and failed. Polamalu over Reed is a joke.
@TDubbs Reed didn't actually retire. He said it was an April Fools joke.
@ravensnick ... Dang, I guess I just read it like a footnote, or maybe some wishful thinking. Makes sense now I suppose, there would at least be a bit more Reed talk when he hangs it up for good.
REEEEEEEED. Thegreatest
9ers can't catch a break this year, they shouldn't have run Harbaugh out of town, they would stand a much better chance at turning this mess around
i disagree, Kaep is overrated, he can't carry that team to a winning record and that defense is losing everyone. Multiple retirements plus didn't they lose both of their starting corners? I think at best they break even
No way the 49ers have a winnign record with the Seahawks and Cardinals in the divison. Plus, I think this may be the Ram's year.
I definitely think its the Ram's year, all they were really missing was a starting QB and they just traded for Foles. They've got arguably the best Dline in the game, their linebacking corps will be addressed through the draft and their secondary is just inexperienced, another year they'll be pretty good. All they need now is to patch up that oline
How much cap will we have next offseason? i feel like once all this dead money is gone we will have more cap than we are used to
This is shaping up to be a crazy offseason - Ngata traded to the Lions, Jimmy Graham traded to the Seahawks, McCoy traded to the Bills - what the heck is going on?
