Like the rest of you guys, I would much rather have elam back there after the by then webb. Put Weddle at the FS and let Elam stay near the line of scrimmage. Also lets see what Huff can do a little bit and just shake things up overall. Wouldn't even be in this mess if they would have just kept Brooks in the first place smdh. If your going to watch tape for 2 hours you better make some changes and avoid making the same mistakes week after week by playing Webb is by far the weakest link. I would much rather see a combination of Smith, Davis, Young (slot) and Weddle, Elam after the bye week, along with Levine coming in on the Dime package.
bye week will not help when u have the same pathetic roster drafted by oz and co.. it is decosta time
It's Decosta's 'analytics' that's picking these players.
I remember Harbs on draft day talking about OZ and Decosta's draft process like Star Trek.
I thought to myself when you have the 6th overall draft pick and 11 picks in total, its not Star trek, its best player available.
What did they do:
Wait until the 4th round to get a CB and completely ignore the safety position when their secondary was a mess
Spent another 2nd round draft pick on an ILB that can barely get on the field
Double down on big slow DTs in a passing league
Then after draft bring in guys over 30 and wonder why the team lack playmakers.
I'm with you on this post. Who uses 20 picks in the draft instead of trading up and gettinget quality of quantity! Then we sign useless fa outside of Wallace, weddle and Smith. On top.of that hold on to players not living up to their contracts (webb) and not getting rid of them. And let's not forget releasing players that we should have kept, butler, Brooks, Simon. Ozzie and harbs, are really taking a step back
I guess the front office has found the secret of life that Dr. Frankenstein discovered. Or they must have because instead of going out and finding good players to trade for, they keep resurrecting bodies from the Raven graveyard and I guess they think they can take the broken pieces and put together a football player out of them. Yep, as I see the Packers made a trade with the Chiefs to pick up a player they needed, the Ravens call out the grave diggers to drag up an old body they think will magically be something they weren't before.
Who would you be interesting in trading for and what would you be willing to trade. I mean bringing in one good player isn't going to make this team that much more competitive at this point. And to get a really good player your talking top draft picks in rounds 1-3. I am not willing to give up those picks. Maybe, if I you thought we were one great player away from making a Super Bowl run, but I don't think anyone thinks thats the case. And Kniles Davis??? cmon man The packers could have waited another week and picked him up off waivers. He has a total of 1 carry this year for -2 yards. Its a ridiculous argument, which seem to be your calling card in this forum.
if we could trade for a cb or safety better than what we already have aside from jimmy and eric for a 2nd or 3rd i would do it in a heartbeat because the front office has blown those picks in recent years
I wholeheartedly agree. I have the feeling that KC will turn out to be one of those blown picks smh. You simply don't draft a supposed pass rusher in the second round because he has a "good motor". You make that selection in the 4th or later. but releasing brooks is really haunting us right now. I have no doubt he would have made that play on OBJ. the way he played in the last preseason game should have been enough but no we go with sorry K. Lewis
I don't understand any of these moves. Smdh. So u keep Hurst, and Kendrick Lewis over Brooks, forr set, and butter. Insanely stupid moves. As well as Brooks and butter played simply ridiculous
The possibility of Jack and Spence being drafted 1&2 then trading back into second for a dB could happen by trading a 3rd and 4th I believe depending on where in the second rd. And scooby wright is more soap thumper rather than the type of lb were looking for.
Doesn't matter about the big play ability if your not getting open to receive the ball. Shepard runs great routes and is able to create separation. He mostly played slot but he can also line up outside. Whoever they draft at WR just make sure they can create space to be a legit target plus you know the hands to catch reliably. Ravens trade back in first round for an additonaly 2nd round pick, take Noah Spence first round. 2nd round Sterling Shepard & Bronson Kaufusi. I'm thinking Ramsey is taken before they are on the board int he first.
That wouldn't be a bad draft at all. He'll trade back up in second in get a dB and we're set. All depends on how FA goes though. But those players along with Ramsey, vh3, and darian Thompson
Definitely can see us drafting Olb or cb first two rounds with our DL of williams, Jernigan, guy, urban, lewis, and kapron-lewis
January J, yes but not in the sense that their implying as an every down pass rusher. Plus just cause he can blitz doesn't mean he is effective using pass rushing moves
Jaylon Smith is an ILB, so kiper's statement makes no sense when talking about pass rusher
Ajf3030, moving Webb to fs wouldn't be a bad move if they use him in a role like tyrann Mathieu. I think he might actually excell in that role
One way to ease everyone's mind is try and sure up a position of need through FA if possible. And not get one of these washed up bums, so sicky of that. And please for the love of ravens football bring back Pagano!
Ok I fully understand the need for a WR, but what is with some of yall infatuation with Daniel Brown? the kid is on the practice squad for a reason and a couple good plays against 2-3 stringers in the preseason doesnt scream #1 WR, smh
Its pretty simple, all of the games lost have come from not being able to hold on to 4th quarter leads or prevent top players and non top players alike from having big games. It falls on our D coordinator not putting together the right scheme or placing our players in the best position for success. He has to go period.

Here's an idea, how bout you activate a guy you just picked up to provide a pass rush! I dont think it would be that hard to send in a guy on third down and tell him to go get the qb smdh. Whats there to learn seriously, I'm a firm believer that Pees needs to go at the end of the season. Its almost to the point where as a fan you hope that we dont make the playoffs cause if we do, they keep him smh. But go ravens either way

After watching this game I fully expect ozzie to look forward o line and especially d line help. I have no idea what they saw in Walker to draft him in the 4th round smh
Everyone is forgetting about A.Robinson. Speedy slot wr with the same abilities as the other two. So its really a battle between those 3 for slot and return duites
Bring in Alonzo dennard to compete for slot/nickel corner
Welcome Terrance Brooks!
Bye bye landry
I don't have a problem with the pick, but it seems like were trying one up the Steelers with these pics. So when they draft a tackle we'll flow suit lol jk
Welp, there goes ward
@gekaap, we're moving Elam to strong safety so Dix would have been the better pick. Other than OL, safety was our biggest need.
A wasted pick last year in my opinion, I mean what was the point of drafting brown. definitely needed a safety not a ILB. I agree with dead serious whole heartedly. Better pray Ward is available in the second. Just smdh with this one

agreed. We need to change our thinking in which we let our guys that produce walk and keep those that don't. Resigning wright was a mistake and could have used that money else where.
