[quote name='BallsDeep' timestamp='1364165680' post='1413685'] Ozzie has lost it. Lets keep signing positions we dont need. I bet we draft 11 quarterbacks in the draft. This decision was even worse than cutting Pollard. Aweful. [/quote] [quote name='BallsDeep' timestamp='1364165779' post='1413689'] I'm done. I'm finding a new team. Screw the Ravens. [/quote]
They lost players and they chose to sign players. One person doesn't want unproven guys and another says they shouldn't sign anybody. That's crazy even though I hope this is the last free agent signing

[quote name='ravensfan852' timestamp='1364165857' post='1413698'] Love the pickup but we still have a lot of holes. I don't feel too comfortable filling the void with unproven draft picks.. [/quote] So what do you consider unproven? Does unproven mean you don't go to practice everyday and therefore you THINK they aren't worthy?? Or does unproven mean something that John H told you? Or is unproven related to what the writers talk about?

We lost Ed and got E.D.
This is exciting. Now let's go grab Michael Huff. I'm also still a fan of us signing Harrison.
Cheap player, veteran leadership, and most importantly, upset steeler fans. He started his career on our practice squad anyway. Let him finish his career with us.
Or bring in Urlacher for a year. Could you imagine if we filled Ray Lewis spot with Brian Urlacher??
I mean, I know we need to get younger, but a few short contracts with vets to show them the ropes would be a good thing in my opinion.

NFL teams don't mortgage a whole side of the football every year. You get 1 or 2 new guys. They got 3 new guys and you're saying they should go get 2 or 3 more?

[singin1]

BallsDeep - is this a personal profile of how you take it?

[SuperBowl35Champions]

What a great move! I just hope there aren't any issues with a fax machine this time.

[newrorayfan]

biolarzen NOBODY will miss your hiatus. I know you think your profound but sssszzz.....Another bad decision by Ozzie, to bad you can't figure out he's old and overpaid so the Broncos were glad to have him gone. If they wanted him he would be there. Just like Ed and Boldin and...

[trickstar21]

lotta cry babys in here "please kick him" stop reading what he has to say i think its cool you guys neg every body whos not an "in oz we trust zombie"

[ozrave]

@newrorayfan

"If I were Ozzie, i would have taken Cruz for Joe because there are already 6 d-lineman."

Errr....but you're not. With respect, you like every other fan (and me) just have no clue on the complexity of building a team. Never have.

[Bmore*InVein]

The city needed this move. I know everyone has felt the losses this offseason, and oh how they have hurt. If we can pull in Huff and have a strong draft... I think we can be a more well rounded a team then we were last year, If we stay healthy. No one can replace Boldin that is for sure, but if we continue to run the ball with Rice and Pierce we will be competitive for a playoff spot!!!

[awais.ashai]

I would also add that we have McClain and Josh Bynes who are both under-rated in the middle. McClain obviously had a terrible injury but all the reports are suggesting he will fully recover - his doctors have even said that he does not require surgery so as far as neck injuries goes this appears to be minor.

[Stephenjr]

Some of these people on here have no football IQ!! This is not Madden!!OZZIE just made the sign of the decade and some idiots actually think he made a bad sign! Dumervil is a BEAST!!!!!!We got a proven player for almost half of what Kruger Recieved!!Kutos to Ozzie on this one!!

[92de52fence55]

O Yeahh.
Spend It

[quote name='horus13corvineus' timestamp='1364163042' post='1413562'] more reason for huff to want to come here too [/quote]
That doesn't make sense. You don't go out and sign a ton of free agents and expect them all to learn how to play with each other. We are good. DOn't need Huff. Omar Brown or Christian Thompson can step in. Huff doesn't make us younger. Heck Dumervil, Canty, and Spears don't make us younger but they were necessary pickups.

If you have a great pass rush, which I think we have one now, that automatically makes your average secondary look like studs. But we are probably better than average right now with Corey Graham, Lardarius Webb coming back, and I'm pretty sure Brown or Thompson will be just good enough. And if Jimmy Smith gets better, we will be fine.

This is not baseball where you can just pay a ton of people and then things work out. After all, I think the Ravens were going to bring in a 3rd free agent either way and it was going to be Huff or Dumervil. We are not the Philadelphia Eagles ok.

[Ragin'Raven]

He's a good player. I don't think it's wrong to not call him Superman though until we've seen him play in a Ravens uniform. We know what he can do in the AFC West. Now let's see what he can do with our team in the AFC North. I'm not calling him Superman yet until I've seen him at least practice and go through a full training camp the "Raven Way" yet. Then I'll be convinced. I think excitement for this signing through is completely warranted. He's been a proven QB nightmare for the Broncos. Let's see what he can do for the Ravens.

[sp3ctor]

Defensive Depth After So-Called Mass-Exodus
DL - Canty, Ngata, Spears, Jones, McPhee.
OLB - Sizzle, Doom, Upshaw.
ILB - McClain, T'eo or Minter (Most Likely), and Byrnes.
CB - Webb, Smith, Graham, Brown
SS - Ihedigbo
Now they need to lock up Michael Huff as our Ed Reed replacement and 'The Perennial Contender' should be our new motto.

[buckshowalter]

Dumervil cheaper than Kruger? Thank you Ozzie!

[dwhravens]

Can Upshaw play in the middle?

[Bjonesy45]

These DL signings cleared up so much space for the draft. Now they can (maybe) trade some of their later picks to move up in the first or second or even third round. With so many options at safety and ILB they can possibly take a WR or OT earlier on in the draft. Now they need to resign Mckinnie

[/quote]You forgot Chris Johnson at CB

[Stephenjr]

Man get these Steeler fans posing as Raven fans off our sight!! Elvis the real Raven Fans are Estatic to have you on our team!!

[han]

....How do you spell repeat?

[sp3ctor]

Also if any reminder is needed, we have:
QB - Not-So Average Joe
RB - Rice and Pierce
WR - Smith, Jones, Doss (who I think will have a break out year this year)
TE - Pitta and Dixon
Plus Vonta, Oher, K.O., and a Yanda. Every team should have a Yanda, the man is a beast of beasts on that front line. I absolutely cannot wait 'til the next season. The Ravens will be beast on both sides of the ball, in all three phases. Can't wait!

Guys enough of the ban this person or complaining trolls-----they live to annoy you and by acknowledging them you make them happy. Please use the report post button.

[Jfravens]

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaah Baby! That's how we do it. Nice job Ozzie and Co.

[SuperBowl35Champions]

You know your team is doing something right when you have Steelers and Bengals fans making accounts on your team website. Go Ravens! Repeat in 2013!

[han]

Repeat..as in Superbowl repeat......to the dumb-A who gave me a -1

[/quote]

You guys also forgot Brendon Ayenbadeju (*sp). .. And with Webby's Ball hawking skills, (some of which he may have learned from Ed), I think we'll be just fine.

[charliebucket]

I still cant believe it I have to keep coming back to make sure its true.

Dumervil for CHEAPER than Kruger? Too good to be true.
