There's no way that Jackson hits the market. Not a chance.

I think the Cowboys will resign Austin - he's a game changer, like DeSean Jackson. Henry is busted up, and has been busted alot...

Floyd has size, but he's never been all that productive, as a #1 - and he's 28. Moore is only 5'9, and he's not even starting for NO.

Marshall, on the other hand, could be available - cue, 1000 more threads on Marshall-love...

Understood. I was just listing those WR that may be available, since we're going to need to do something - and we've only got 1 WR (Marcus Smith) under contract for next year.

BTW, I think Marshall is going to get the same treatment as VJax - they'll both likely get tagged.

i have been saying this since training camp and these boys have potential there young, especially harper, he has the whole package, speed quick, crips routes, he needs HANDS THOUGH!!! , im sure he is busting his butt off in practice and hopefully gaining some weight.. RILEY at 21 u have a better DHB, speed, quick great agility, i like him as are no.3 reciever, i wanna see us draft a reciever, and half kelly washington split time with harper as no.2 harper can be a big factor in our team next season
6'4 215 lbs, hopefully gains 5-10 lbs more and gets hands, WE HAVE A RANDY MOSS RAVENS FANS

as for our defensive side of the ball, i wanna see us keep fabian because hes a good corner, i like the boy alot, hes young. and he has a few things to work on, he worked on his tackling and look how well hes doing on that.. i say if we works on his hands and his slant route covering, he could be dangerous... and shutdown corner, remember last year
19 pass deflections
2 INTS
in only 10 games thats impressive, btw thats under ex ryan
WE WILL NEVER SEE ANY OF OUR BOYS PLAY WELL IN A ****TY SCHEME BY MATTISON,

linebacker wise and DE
we need to draft a DE
[b]GREG HARDY ANY1, CHECK HIM OUT, DEF HAVE HIS EYES ON HIM[/b]
OR
we do need another linebacker a speedy physical one, and im going with
ROLANDO McClain, 6'3 big fast, physical. i like..

btw. I feel bad for landry, hes a great run stopping safety but he cant cover anybody, but that also has an effect with our scheming, remember same personnel as last year but different D-COORDINATOR, overall. im dissapointed in harbaugh for bringing in mattison who has no nfl experience..

i say put in haruki nakamaura in, and ed reed needs to stop over commiting and actually tackle.. he goes and tries to make a big play but he gives up the big play...

have respect for our boys, they are all playmakers

i just hope ozzi and bischotti see what harbaugh has done with this team and brings in an unknown coach without evaluating him, or chose mike NOLAN?>???????? WHO was our coordinator before, and introduced the best thing that has ever happened to the team. the 3-4
LETS all hope we see a change next season..
i know this is gonna be kinda harsh for myself and every ravens fan who reads this
but i really wanna see the browns kick our ******, give harbaugh a wake up call, and realize mattison sucks.. but he wont cuz its his guy

our secondary will continue to give up big plays because of the lack of pass rush in this horrible vanilla 4-3 defensive scheme.. good luck ravens, when we play colts, steelers..

i seriously think brady quinn will throw for over 250 yrds. i just have a gutsy feeling. sorry fans, i love the ravens but we made terrible coaching decisions

Greg Hardy isn't the type of player we need. He doesn't always show up to play and he has trouble staying healthy. I believe he is injured for the rest of the year as of right now.

Personally I like Cameron Hayward from Ohio State. I think he has a chance to be a great DT for us. He would be able to replace Trevor Pryce and infuse our D-line with some youth.

I love Rolando McClain as well, but he might end up being the first linebacker taken. I hope he falls to us, but I think we have other pressing needs.

Jackson is great against the run and a sure tackler. However hes not great in coverage and very rarely makes any impact plays ( sacks, ints FF). That could be scheme based, but it could also not be. I wouldnt pay Jackson more than 5 mil a year and nothing over a 3 or 4 year deal.

I would love to sign D'Qwell Jackson, personally. I think he is a very instinctive linebacker and I love the fire he plays with. Not to mention I think he makes enough impact plays, he had 3 ints last year and two sacks. Those aren't great stats, but he did have 154 total tackles. He plays on a sub-par team and with the right people around him he could be amazing. He has been quitely flying under the radar and I would love to have him as a Raven.

I don't see us landing Vincent Jackson or Brandon Marshall. I think they will both get the tag and I think Marshall will want to stay with Denver. I do see someone like Chris Chambers or Lance Moore coming to us though. Miles Austin would be nice but Jerry Jones would be an idiot to let a wide receiver talent go....oh wait..... never mind....

Looking back at this I'm still loving the idea of JJ playing DE in a 3-4 and letting Kruger or a Free agent taking the LOLB position. Not only will this solidify our run defense but we will have a pretty young pass rush as well with Suggs, Ellerbe and Kruger.

J.J. is fine where he is. His versatility as a LB is invaluable.

I hope Kruger can push J.J. in camp but moving Jarret back to the line after he lost weight to play LB wouldn't make sense.

15 Pounds is nothing.....he could easily put that on and we could use Kruger's speed for coverage and blitzing off the edges.

When you are talking water weight and fat 15 pounds is nothing yes, but when you are talking about 15 pounds of muscle, that's a whole different story.

I would rather keep JJ at linebacker for our 3-4 and sometimes on the end for our 4-3 packages. I would rather resign Edwards and have him and Ngata play on each side of Mckinney.

What has Kruger shown? 1 INT against a 3[sup]rd[/sup] string QB. That's it. I wouldn't start someone who only has that on his resume.

Kruger made a good play in coverage on a zone blitz against the Steelers but he doesn't have the athleticism to hold up in coverage.

J.J. helps the team so much as a OLB. Putting him back on the line would be a waste.

I mean usually when you draft someone in the second round you want to get them on the field as much as possible. And looks like he was the only one that did anything against a 3rd string QB on this defense.

JJ just reminds me a lot like Brett Keisel, that's all. Why go out and draft pass rushers when it wouldnt hurt to move them around a little bit and save our picks for more dire needs.
