They got Antonio Smith but Bmore has more depth

They got tons of it... Seattle is more of a short term team though... They sign many players to short term deals.... Bennet will be  a FA next year correct?

yep

But don't forget the young pieces they have in Irvin, Williams, Hill

Irvin is a headcase.... Good player, but will prob find himself in jail. 

Williams seems to have some injury probs... 

Hill is a really good player.

I think Canty is quite possibly the best signing we had this year. He fits exactly what we need. While Dumervil was a great signing, he's definitely a luxury. Canty was a need in order to improve that dline.

Agreed. I think it was definitely our most underrated move (besides locking up Joe which no one seems to care that much about). I'm really excited to see how he does for us.

This is how I would have reacted if we did not lock up Joe.

Seahawks,Bengals,Ravens.

That's how I'd rank them....If Ngata comes back healthy and in shape like I expect him too then that changes some things.

That has to do with football actually :P

 

Awesome loophole. 

It's about a man crying over the NFL season being over.

But remember trading for Alex Smith would have been a much better option

IF YOU EVER BRING THAT UP AGAIN I SWEAR TO GOD...

 

 

Don't take me back to those times.....

Wow omg I remember that! Lmao crazy raven fans

I think that's more because it was pretty much assumed Joe was going to be here.  Did anyone really question whether we would let him go?

I questioned when we would get a deal done. If he had a 20 million cap hit this year because of the franchise tag that would've been horrible.

And the fact that the reining Super Bowl MVP got locked up long term is the biggest, most important news, by far this offseason.

Oh man...
I can't wait for the season to start but after reading that I totally can haha

Yeah it's definitely the most important signing this year.  I just think people kind of forget about it because there were very few that thought there was any chance he would leave.

 

With that being said, the best new addition to the team is Canty.  He fits exactly what we need.

Oh no.... Mili's "Tyrod is so good, so we should let him go" argument haha.

a montage of awesome quotes

 

“If Joe continues to play like this I think we will let him walk and rebuild” 

 

“I agree this is horrible. And for the guy not to show any emotions is what ticks me off. You can't throw a pick 6 for 95 yards and go to the sideline like it's no big deal.” 

 

“Eh.... I would rather put Dennis Dixon in”

 

“Flacco is the best option we have, unfortunately”

 

“but Joe Flacco is taking me back to the Kyle Boller days…JOE WACKO....excuse me, I mean FLACCO.  He is a disgrace to the position of quarterback.”

Best one of all

 

 

"Where are you getting this nonsense that i called him a starter from? Vick did change the game. Where do you think all these scramblers come from to start on there playoff caliber teams. There will be no more denying the scrambling QB in the Nfl because there are to many now and all but Cam are successful (meaning there team is in the playoffs). Alex Smith got benched as did Matt Flynn. Its only a matter of time my friend. They put to much pressure on opposing defenses to be ignored. The only reason i said Tyrod had a good game was because it was his first NFL game. His stats can't be compared to anyone at this point because he only has one start. I thought it was a great game for a rookie to score on his first outing against a playoff team. 

Stop the hate,if you wanna debate facts that's cool, but not to like Trod because he is a scrambling QB, is ridiculous. Flacco has struggled all year long. When he can't move the ball in a game i will be looking for Tyrod to come in for him. No more watching him struggle for entire games".

I don't count the 4-3DEs as much when it comes to defensive line rankings because I mainly look at the defensive tackles. With that said, I think our line has the most depth but it's not the best.

BTW, Ngata is not the best defensive tackle in football. That title is now unquestionably Watt's with Atkins barely behind him.

Chris Clemons

Bruce Irvin

Cliff Avril

Brandon Mebane

Michael Bennett

Red Bryant

Jordan Hill

Jesse Williams

Tony McDaniel

 

It's not even close

 

Irvin is suspened for the first 4 games and was a part-time guy before that.

Clemons and Bennett are coming off major knees injuries.

Jesse Williams had some major health issues which was why he dropped.

 

That deep Seattle line isn't as deep as it once was, Cliff Avril might be the only pass rusher of note they have that isn't going to start the year off injured or suspended.

Eeew. Shudder.

[ravensdan]

Eeew. Shudder.

That is a hilarious thread. And people question why the national media doesn't want to rank flacco in the top 10 qbs yet their own fans are calling for tyrod Taylor (I can barely type that w/o laughing). Rather have Sanchez and romo etc...

AB highlights @2:05 minute mark

[SecretAgentMan]

 

 

Name: Brandon Williams

Position: NT

Scheme: 3-4 NT

 

Height: 6'1

Weight: 335

Draft Status: Picked 94th Overall in 2013 NFL draft.

College: Missouri Southern State

40 time: 5.31

Bench Press. 38 reps

 

To tell y'all the truth. I hated this pick when Ozzie initially made it. I wanted Ozzie to go get Jesse Williams. I wondered out loud, "how the hell is he still on the board". Then I saw said picture above. He's 335 pounds of muscle. And trust me when I say this. He aint going to be pushed around. 

 

Had he gone to a bigger school, I think he would have been a late first rounder. I'm being serious. The man is RIPPED, and he can play football.

 

I am going to forever call him the toliet man, while a horrible sounding nickname (Like the Mailman for Karl Malone), he does clean the crap up on a Football field. 

His work ethic is what gets me most excited about him.

 

But his play on the field is just awesome.

Williams can play 4-3 DT

Just call him "the Janitor" lol

[SecretAgentMan]

Williams can play 4-3 DT

IK. But he will mainly be a 3-4 NT with us

We run multiple fronts. I think he will play both formations here regularly.
