yes they took them guys just so we couldnt have them, they had no interest in them

No they took those guys because they knew we were going to take them, just like Hightower.

I want my 3 hrs of life back from last night, all i watched was great players being taken and RAVENS not even making a pick.

since hightower wasnt there.,...i have no problem trading back. So are none of you guys wanting a WR with this 35th pick? right now its rumored that rams will take quick today with the first pick, that would leave randle and hill.

as many Raven Brass have stated, this draft is very deep with talented players at different positions, and seeing as the Ravens Top target players they were hoping or aiming for got picked before it got to the us, and seeing as how the Ravens Value Draft picks, it only made sense for Ozzie and company to trade back in the draft, (35th overall and gain an additional pick) similiar move to which they did 2 years ago, when the ravens traded back and selected Sergio Kindle with its first pick.


why did we trade back? our top guys we had targeted, got picked before they reached us, so we traded back to 35th overall while gaining an additional pick. (Ravens value picks)

talent this year is plentiful, there are players out there that are considered 1st round talent that will be picked , 2nd, 3rd and even 4th round

Getting that extra pick allows the Ravens to trade up in the 2nd day if there are certain players they really like. Does that mean we have?

2nds-2
3rds-1
4ths-3
5ths-2
6ths-1
7ths-1

A fourth rounder for the Ravens is so valuable because of how well they use their picks. Every year the Ravens always have impact players that are drafted later. Might as well stock up

Only two 4th rounders Ravens gave theirs up for Lee

I hope we move right infront of the Pats and get Janoris Jenkins. The way I see it is our enemies are loading up to pass so counter with the GREATEST secondary of all time. I honestly see us moving back again a few spots to gathering more picks, Eric said this was a depth draft. If we could still pull Alshon, Glenn, Lewis or Kendricks and a Quick or Streeter later I would be happy.

we traded back because our player was still available and Ozzie knew we could grab an extra pick

welcome Courtney Upshaw to Bmore

Wow, linemen being picked over Glenn and Martin...surprised to see them dropping, especially with the Panthers picking a small school guard over Glenn....Silatolu is a beast, but a little surprised. Trade the extra fourth, come back up, and get Glenn Ozzie!

Thank God welcome to Ball So Hard Mr. Upshaw! that's why we traded out, we knew he'd be sitting in that 35 spot. Now lets go get a guard or a wideout
