I mocked him to us about a month ago but I changed it to Corey Davis in my latest. I think my smokescreen theory about Davis was right btw, wasn't there talk of the ravens really wanting Davis hours before the draft?

Yup none stop talk

One thing is for sure about this pick, he fits. I don't like the downside but in our system he can shine. We like top down attacking coverage and he does that better than any corner in the draft. We have the safety help to ease him into it. 

And thank god, we have a corner who can stop the quick pass, finally. Hot read to Edelman on the blitz? Meet Humphrey, coming in like a missile to ruin your day. 

But then again... play action deep shot and "welcome to the NFL marlon Humphrey" in the worst way... I hope he gets his head in the game and learns how to stay patient

Only way he gets stuck in one on one situations like that is if hes in cover 3. In that case i think he'll be fine. We have brandon carr and jimmy who are both 6foot corners to mentor him. Ive always loved Humphrey as a fit for us but didnt think we would take him once we signed Carr. @BmoreBird22 you and I were probably the only ones to have mocked him to us 😆

What i dont understand about our scouting dept or our FO belief system is that we seemingly have no interest in players that play the ball, specifically corners. We seem to be more interested in guys whos strengths are at the line rather than deep on the outside where big plays occur.

I see no reason for the FO to have Humphrey ahead of t.white unless it's because of ozzies hatred of LSU. T.white is so much more polished and is a playmaker. the only think humphrey does better is break up screens. We have enough guys for that :/

Then why didnt White go in the first round if hes so good? He doesnt have that long speed and just isnt the height, weight, speed type of corner we covet

edit: My bad white went 27th

I am beyond excited. Humphrey fits like a glove in this defense. I have so much hope that he'll be an excellent pro for so many years to come.

I called this one.

Much love man! Didnt see it comming (especially lately) like you but always loved Marlon. 

So pass rusher or pass catcherr in round 2? I really want Derek Rivers

i like peppers. but it feels like a reach. although i think hes gonna be a very solid SS, i still feel they couldve gotten a much better player

With the browns...hes a bust...

Honest question. If Conley did not have his incident, would Baltimore have taken him over Marlon?

Doubt it. He doesnt press at all. He was probably a trade back target.

We picked him without bringing him in for a visit? Are you freaking kidding me? Has Ozzie lost his mind? May he will be great, but you don't take a guy in the first round without bringing him in for a visit smh.

Dude the guy went to Bama. Im sure ozzie met him once

We really like those guys who have had fathers in the NFL

Ive always really liked marlon humphrey just didnt expect it especially after the signing of carr. After how our season ended last year when jimmy smith got hurt....we better have learned our lesson

maybe this means we have it in good faith that one of tim williams, carl lawson, takk mckinley, charles harris, or tyus bowser are there at 47?

How about derek rivers. I bet marlon humphrey was top 15. He was top 15 on a lot of guys boards

Just now, BmoreBird22 said:

He fits perfectly in the Dean Pees defense. Put him in the Tampa 2 or Cover 3 and he'll kill it. He has so much ability. I am so happy.

I knew you would be. We agreed on that tampa 2 and cover 3 fit i remember talking to you about it for a while

Just now, JoeyFlex5 said:

Many did. And as I said then, not happy.

I liked him a while ago. Been sleeping on him. Hes got all the traits though!

WIth Jonathan Allen on the board?

 

Ozzie.. I'm not as mad as I would be if we took Cam... But I ain't happy either. 

Thank god its not Cam 😂

Cam Robinson is still on the board 😂

And yall still think cam is a reach at 16

9 minutes ago, 52520Andrew said:

So that means we need to draft a subpar RT at 16? Because the O-line class stinks?

Hes not subpar lol but. Yes. It does. 

Just now, 52520Andrew said:

We will play him, Houston, and Mack next year. 

I meant playoffs but either way its only once. Sounds like we do need a RT then. Theres no better option out there other than Cam...if there is let me know

2 minutes ago, 52520Andrew said:

Dude Robinson can't touch Miller. Think Future Trunks vs. Perfect Cell

Well good thing well probably never have to play him

Besides. Anyone we put put there wont be able to touch him, Ill take my chances with Cam

Whats up over-reaction

Cam Robinson will make this board crash  😂 then they wont have to close it

Just now, balfan23 said:

To me - a big part of the draft leading to our pick is rooting for teams to take guys we don't want. Of those who are expected to be drafted high, who is it that you'd be rooting to hear called (aside from QBs)? 

Everyone here will say Cam Robinson 😂

In fairness how many tackles do well against Von Miller?

Exactly! And denver isnt really our worry....its pittsburg and their linebackers are pretty small. Looks like a lot of pancakes for cam

I can see Cam pick up TJ(the kid whos anouncing our pick) and put him over his shoulders lol

Just now, 52520Andrew said:

Yeah well put him against Von Miller and then we can talk about how great he is against speed. Miller won't only do contain rushes either

Only way to stop von is to chip him....everyone knows that. Then when cam gets his hands on him hes not going anywhere

Just now, BOLDnPurPnBlacK said:

Anyone consider that the rumor about trading up for Cam is bc we want the Eagles to think that bc they really like Corey Davis too and if they think we're taking Davis they won't do it. 

So make em think it's Indy we're worried about when really we want to snag the guy Philly wants. 

Lol @JoeyFlex5 was joking
