  1. it could even have been for hooker... i think maybe his fall surprised them and they thought maybe they could get a db with rare centre-fielding talent on the team
  2. exactly - i saw that too and was concerned about it but he's a monster playing in the zone in that left corner role with his eyes on the cornerback - he's a guy that puts himself in position to make plays on the ball in the zone - if he can improve his back pedal and hip fluidity then he can access that track speed he has in man coverage as well
  3. well then what's the point in watching the ravens this year if you are just going to root against the player we selected - im not saying he's the guy i would have wanted but im not going to just focus on all the negatives because that would make supporting the ravens and marlon humphrey a depressing business - especially when he has a lot of positives to him as well
  4. to be fair, the analysts literally had no idea what our board looked like which was evident given their surprise about humphrey
  5. no one ever said that - they said that when they got on the clock he was the highest guy left on their board by far - not that he was better than the guy they would have traded up to get
  6. he went 2nd round and literally the pats were trying to find ways to keep him off the fild
  7. i did the exact same double take - i was like look at all the players left on the board and then looked down and humphrey was sat there like 2 spots behind oj howard and still in the top 16 players
  8. dre kirkpatrick has been pretty damn good for the bengals so you would have been wrong to label him a bust - as has been proven by the 5 year contract he signed and Dee Milliner played well when he was on the field he just kept getting injured like literally all the time and as for the last decade thing there have only been 5/6 alabama corners drafted high including humphrey - and one of them was cyrus jones who was an absolute reach in fact im pretty sure that alabama has only had 8 corners drafted at all into the NFL ever... and 2 of them were day 3 picks... so I dont know how you could draw any conclusions from that given that antonio langham, fernando bryant, kareem jackson, dre kirkpatrick were all good players for a while, dee miliner looked good when he was healthy, 2 of the corners drafted were drafted day 3 and the other one is cyrus jones (who was an enormous reach)...
  9. oh god id almost forgotten charlie mocking him to us in the 2nd - but the fact that he gave us cam who didnt even go in the 1st round makes me feel a little better about wormley hopefully not being the pick
  10. i think it was more out of hope that a higher prospect like hooker or barnett might fall than actual unpredictability
  11. as day 2 options they are all guys id want - not sure id want them all at 47 though - dan feeney is probably higher on my list than pat elflein, and if any of the corners fall to us at 47 we might have to take them (although i fully expect a run on dbs at the beginning of the 2nd)
  12. an all bama draft with those 4 players would appease me of any doubts i might have had about drafting humphrey at number 1
  13. let's hope we grab a pass rusher then so that we can make the most of their terrible oline and put dalton on his back before he can launch the ball downfield to ross or aj green
  14. really? i havent seen anything about him injury wise or character wise - its been widely reported that he's a stand up guy whos grounded by his family...
  15. i just really want williams or lawson at this point - i really hope they are there but i feel like this might end up being a barnett situation where they get taken just before us by the colts/bills/saints/bengals
  16. he absolutely shouldnt be the next ravens pick but he could potentially be worth the one after that
  17. and he's got the best name of any of the pass rushers in this draft (except maybe equal with tarrell basham)
  18. it took me way too long to work out what this was
  19. he was used so much in coverage on tape i critical situations that i guess i just wanted more momentous edge rushing tape to watch - i wouldnt hate the pick but he wouldnt be my first choice of edge rusher if they all make it
  20. maybe he needs to try and get both in one avatar... a Ravens Legion of Boom kind of deal
  21. no one's moved him up the board but no one's going to not support the guy who comes in to be a raven - ive always said the only guy i wouldnt be able to talk myself into would be taco charlton
  22. i'd be pretty ok with those 3 players... im not as high on bowser as some here - he'd be behind lawson and williams on my edge rusher wish list and behind some of the oline and corners who might still be around
  23. when he's facing the qb he's great already which helps - as some others have said though i do worry about him giving away penalties in man coverage especially early in his career
  24. There are 5 guys i'd be incredibly happy if they fell to us at 47 and we took them: Tim Williams, Carl Lawson, Forest Lamp, Cam Robinson, Quincy Wilson (I know we drafted a corner but his value would be difficult to pass up at 47) but the quality of this draft is such that there are other guys around that i'd be happy with too like Jordan Willis, Malik Mcdowell, Budda Baker, Zach Cunningham, Juju Smith-Schuster, Kevin King
  25. Conley is one of the best at that
