In order to make the postseason the Ravens have to dominate on defense. A make shift Oline, an average QB, and one quality WR will likely spell and brutal year for the offense.

I would LOVE to steal Josh Dobbs with 78th pick , Dynamic talent to groom in Flacco's final years.

The make a wish bit was AWESOME! I honestly forgot about the pick being made and wanted to hear more about the kids story. Good stuff for make a wish, the NFL, and the Ravens.

After sleeping on it I really love the pick yesterday but now I realize Flacco is getting screwed this year. There is no way we can fail to address an anemic pass rush, it seems all but a lock linebacker or DL will be the call. Meaning the first offensive upgrade will be a third rounder and beyond.

Foster will be available , the Ravens will pass , and we will miss out on the opportunity to have the most dominate linebacker duo in the league. Ravens still trying to save face from the ray rice issue

You always need more weapons..... injuries occur and its fairly clear we lack depth at the "playmaker" spot. I believe in Wallace and Perriman but injuries don't care about mine or their opinions. Not to mention our Backfield scares no one

There is ZERO chance of Foster coming to the Ravens. Titans, Jets , Bengals, Saints, Browns, Cards........ all drafting ahead of us ,all in need of linebackers and a real leader on the defensive side of the ball.

Ozzie cant afford to miss on an impact player early. Trading back for picks sounds nice but the return for doing so hasn't panned out often.

Shaun O'Hara saying that we may have to move up to get Fournette. That statement is absolutely on the money. If we want to go from best case 11 games to best case SB champion this year, we need to get Fournette even if it moves moving up. I know that landing him will open up the offense and give Joe much needed reprieve in just handing the ball over and watching the first downs come in droves. He's the one man solution to our woes in my honest opinion. That's just how game changing that man can be. He's Jamal Lewis 2.0 except better.

fournette was a workhorse at LSU , those tires don't have many miles left on them. Picking Fournette is round one is a huge mistake for any team.

I do not want a narcissistic racist on our team. Let some other team over pay for Sherman's drama

I have faith in Urschel. Call me crazy but I think he can handle it. The guy is clearly smart enough to understand the mental demands of center. Physically he is slightly undersized at 300lbs but intelligence and quickness can counter that.

It would be a beautiful thing to see Mike Williams in purple/black. Unfortunately I think he goes in the 6-10 range. I'm really not in love with Ross. I see Tavon Austin when I watch his highlights. Davis seems extremely well rounded and the type of receiver Flacco really needs.

The Ravens would be better off getting a QB that doesn't launch under thrown lobs off his back foot

Love to have Webb back at slightly above vet min , solid safety depth

The Ravens treated Aiken terribly. Why in the world with the impending retirement of Smith would you not try to get Aiken involved and offer him a cheaper three year deal.
Wallace/Perrimen/Moore= Speed
Possession WR: Aiken/Pitta(because we all know he isn't a true TE)
Slot: Aiken/ Camp/ Moore.
We were set and the idea of drafting a WR round 1 would be non existent if the Ravens took better care of their people.

There was once a time when Baltimore fans pissed and moaned about our lack of speed. Possession receiver this and possession receiver that. Now we act like were to good for speed because we have 1 1/2 guys that are pretty fast . Torrey would have done well back with the Ravens

I don't see the logic in picking a WR or a RB in the first round with all the holes the Ravens have on the offensive line. Best to build the defense & Special teams for the future maybe they can start scoring TD again.

I agree but this is a weak year for OL in the draft. You don't pass on Mike Williams because your lacking a right tackle.

I see little value in adding Peterson , he isn't a 3 down back and doesn't catch that well. We all know Flacco looks for his first option and then immediately dumps it to RB/FB

Class act and a great player, I appreciate what you did for us Doom , best of luck

Honestly why would Pitta take a pay cut? He really did earn that money this year and looks poised to do it again. If the Ravens cut him he knows there will be plenty of teams on the open market willing to pay for his services. One scary idea would be New England sweeping him up since they lost Bennett. Can you imagine the stress trying to cover Pitta and Gronk

Why settle on a city and organization like Detroit?? I completely understand leaving the Ravens for the money but you have to believe there were better options out there pay the same or damn near close to it? Detroit is a dump

The Mistake: The front office is trying to provide Flacco with "weapons" but fails to realize that "You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear". Next year, Flacco will again be Flacco, so why not try and win with a stellar defense and hope Flacco does not turn the ball over as much.
 

absolutely spot on ! I could not agree more.  Joe is not comparable to the Qbs capable of  carrying their teams.... he simply isn't  talented enough. We need to focus on a strong defense and a solid run game. Couple those two with the fact Tucker can kick it from midfield and we will be in a position to compete and win  every week.

hahaha ummmm so If Im reading this correctly and I'd like to think I am It sounds as if the Ravens will not be retaining any of their top soon to be free agents while also cutting some of their better players in order to create cap space and void bad deals. Soooooooo the good news is coming in the afternoon right ???

Shareece Wright and Kendrick Lewis weren't exactly "good" players when they were here.

I was referring the article mentioning the possibility of cutting players like Doom, Wallace , Webb , Pitta , Watson

Im curious why the Ravens waited so long, the appropriate time to cut lewis was 2 years ago .....lol
