Honestly I'm not worried about that position one bit. Relatively easy spot to fill. An example is how Orr shined. Especially with the talent he had around him. There will be much much more talent sorrounding that spot this year. All the way around. K.C., maybe P.O., another user brought up the good thought of how Bowser can also play the middle while Timmy and Sizzle come off the edge at times. Basketabll , background, he looks really nimble with his coverage on some tape. Also there will definitely be a lot of times where Mosely is holding down the middle by himself, and times where Jefferson plays next to him as well, with Webby and Tavon coming in on some sets. I hear ya, but I'm not worried about that spot what so ever.

No, this isn't changing. You will still be able to comment in the blogs. The stories that are published for the Ravens will still have comments. Got it. Thanks. So are forums the big live discussion thread things that take place during games and the draft and stuff? or what are they?

So are these the forums that are closing??? Are we not going to be able to comment and respond to each other's comments?? That would be incredibly lame. I'm completely done with Baltimoreravens.com if that's the case

Same here. I just want us to get our swagger back. Ever since Ray and Ed left, teams have not been scared of us anymore, but now we have players/veterans who can play smash mouth football and hit. All we need is a dominate rushing attack and we'll be just fine. Joe is at his best when he has a running game working so he can use more play-action plays. Agreed, BUT, it's easier to have a dominate run game if you have a top tier back, line , or both. Our line and backs are not even close to that. We're going to have multiple rookies on our line and we don't even know who is starting. West and Woodhead are our running backs. So little invested into those 2 areas. Boomin defense coming, brutal offense

Try and think about why that happened... our offense was so inept. By having a better offense you stay on the field longer, the defense stays fresh and they then have the ability to see games out. Seriously!!!!!!!! I don't know why people don't understand that. It's so simple. Our D was simply gassed at the end of games as well as the season from being on the field the whole time. It's pretty simple

Think its pretty clear who is leading their respective groups. Suggs leads the Dline/LBs, Weddle leads the secondary. Steve Smith was leading the receivers, and Yanda leads the Oline. I thought this was common knowledge. If your interpretation of "leadership" is a guy who delivers sermons in the locker room or is constantly in the public eye preaching like Ray Lewis was, then I think the lack of leadership falls on your end, not the Ravens end. If I asked you to tell me who the leader of the groups of players on the New England Patriots are, you couldn't do that either. So apparently they don't have leadership from player commanders (outside of Brady) either, yet they seem to keep winning. "then the lack of leadership falls on your end..." ????????????????? LOL you're donkey ways have no limits LOL

that just about sums it up indeed

LOL. If anything them seeing us say that would only motivate them to be hungrier imo

Don't forget Matt Skura a UDFA and practice squad player from last year as our center. He's been around for a year, hopefully has gained bulk and knowledge. He was considered one of the better UDFA signings from last year's group. I see the Ravens picking up a veteran Tackle since most of our players vying to be a starter seem more inclined to be a G or C. I think Lewis can switch to right tackle, but he looked good at LG and worked well with Stanley This is my problem with the Ravens draft moves a lot. If they have Nembot, Skura, Urschel, Jensen, Lewis, and they are all possible options, why are you wasting 2 picks on more lineman? Especially if they also intend to bring in Mangold. On one hand they are saying they have it all under control in house, and on the other, they are proving with their actions we are hugely deficient in the O line. it cant be both. Nobody knows if they are planning on bringing Mangold in Nembot, Skura, Urscherl, and Jensen- going into the season relying on any of these guys starting would be a disaster. That's not to say that they can't. But regardless of position, you're always looking for the best players and depth. John will never be a starter. Nembot, maybe. Jensen and Skura are probably back ups but they're working on it. We are searching for 2 starters for the o so very important oline. Using 2 picks on them is far from wasting picks. Huge need. Need quality and competition there

I love Q but I doubt he wants to come back. I'm driving the Cruz and Decker train at this point. They would both fill massive needs very nicely. I watched Cruz game tape on youtube just from last year. He still has it. Not to mention the fire and he's as good of a locker room guy as it gets too. He would add some nice fire to our lacking wr core

Yanda is NOT playing RT. It's that simple.

Guys, I feel bad cuz I told the front office I wouldn't leak it, but we all deserve it as the passionate fans we are. Here's the final 53 yall LOL : 1. Flacco 2. Cox 3. Tucker 4. Kock 5. Tavon 6. Yanda 7. Wormley 8. Woodehead 9. Timmy Williams 10. Maxx 11. BWill 12. Weddle 13. Webby 14. Waller 15. Wallace 16. Urscherl 17. Urban 18. Sizzle 19. Stanley 20. Z 21. Jimmy 22. Nico 23. Pitta 24. Pierce 25. Perriman 26. C.J. 27. CMoore 28. P.O. 29. Mallet 30. ALewis 31. Levine 32. Kufasi 33. Judon 34. Jensen 35. T.J. 36. Nembot 37. Marlon 38. Big Dawg Henry 39. Gilmore 40. Jermaine 41. Dixon 42. Carl Davis 43. K.C. 44. Chuck 45. BCarr 46. Camp 47. Boyle 48. Canady 49. Bowser 50. Buck 51. West 52. Mangold 53. Cruz Not BAADDDDDD! And don't get mad at me, I didn't make the list. Just sharin it with yall. Maybe and undrafted FA surprises. I know some people want a FB, but we don't need one, it's 2017. Not to mention, I know he's 6'4, but I think Boyle would be a NASTY FB. I'm guessing he would be a better blocker than Juice, and I think he's a more dangerous receiver for sure. No more anticipation folks, here it is. I'm very ready to go into January with this roster. The coaching was discouraging at best last year, but it's a new year. To keep it simple, I LOVE that 52 man roster. Our defense is back. Opposing offenses fearing our defense is back. CANT WAIT

Which is such a shame because we invested two 4th round picks on them and a lot of playing time! In the meantime guys like Demarco Murray got traded for a 4th round swap. LT showed some promise but kept getting hurt! And Buck. Well il be nice and not comment on that lol mangold would be a perfect fit. I don't know why the hold up? Its funny how you conveniently said its gonna take a month or so. Of course they gonna look better when Dixon is back. I reserve judgement on Dixon until I see it myself. "Juicers" usually don't come back to 100 percent untill a year later when they go off the random test list. Just saying. I was on Dixons bandwagon all year but now I'm waaaaay of that wagon till he proves otherwise. Forward to the 2018 draft. The Ravens select a RB in the first round. One can dream right Looking at the team right now, going wr and rb in rounds 1 and 2 next year, in either order sounds great to me.

I think that would be impressive. I don't think we'd line up with 3 big guys on a third and 12 but take any of them out and put Mosley in lol did I mention that I really really like this D?!! march 11 is when FAs don't count against comp picks any more. Looking forward to that date. March 11th? we're well past that. Did you mean May 11th?

I hear that. Pacman and Burfict are two of the worst ever. That's why I'm stoked it happens twice a year and I actually enjoy watching Pitt and Cincy beat up on eachother
