[BR News]

Baltimore didn’t draft a returner after releasing Jacoby Jones. Now there are multiple options.

Call me crazy but I really believe Carter will win the job, I've been hearing nothing but positive things about this guy.

[RaineV1]

I think Carter will end up as the main kick and punt returner for the Ravens.

[Robbo15]

DeAndre Carter will be our return guy sorry Camp

[stixfix69]

I wouldn't count Camp out or anyone for that matter, competition brings out the best in everyone.....

[BallSoHard808]

Yea carter I wasn't high on him if he was going to be our first receiver drafted but now heck yea we can have our own Deanthony Thomas!!! Go RAVENS!!!!!

[ravens4life86]

Campanaro or Carter I dont know who the other options are. Asa Jackson? But I wouldnt want to jeopardize his health in the return game, when we need full health in the secondary. My vote to start would be Campanaro

[ellicottraven]

My vote is for DeAndre Carter, because he is going to be tremendously useful as a slot receiver for us as well!

[stampedehero]

I think it will be competition between Carter and Campanero.  They should give Jah Reid a shot. Lol  

[Henckel15]

im a little nervous about michael campanaro or asa jackson getting injured on kickoff returns so maybe deandre carter or if elam dosnt improve i would say we can make him the returner

[Bandit666]

Campanero has better hands then Jackson, but not the speed. I believe the only way Carter makes the team is punt returner or KO returner. My vote is for Carter. He has good hands and speed.

[stixfix69]

The way rosters are built, it's hard to keep specialist such as punt returners and kick returners, they have to also contribute elsewhere, and in this case whoever wins the job, has to be good at ST, and be able to play WR, roster spots are so precious these days....But....I'm also starting to see a trend, we are stock piling WR's taller than 6 feet, so are the ooompa looompa days over in Ravens land for WR's??? Will SSS be the last of the under 6 foot WR's????....

[outkast1]

I like Campanaro ,but that DeAndre Carter name keeps popping up in conversations.DeAndre might take the slot position from Mike.

[salamander]

I am very curious to see how Camp develops and I hope we don't give up on him too soon or allow somebody else to pick him up for a song. Camp seems to be the kind shifty, tough smaller guy who could potentially give our opponents a real headache. My fear is that we let Camp move on elsewhere and he goes on to become a viable Welker type weapon for another team. Man, that would sting.

Jah Reid will be gone before pre-season!

We have enough receivers if Campanaro gets injured. I'd say give him a try on the returner job.

[ALSKAN RAVEN FAN]

May the best guys get the Jobs available and make the 53 man roster.....

[RavensFootballFan]

After the draft and getting more through UDFA, it is hard to pick a favorite because there seems to be a lot of good players in the WR and PT/KT positions. I agree may the best man wins and see what happens. I like Camp and hope he does well but I also like who we recently got. Gonna be very tough to choose who will make the 53. Best of luck to all those fighting for a spot on the 53.

[January J]

Asa has looked really good in preseason- I think it's him or carter

[outkast1]

I like Campanaro ,but that DeAndre Carter name keeps popping up in conversations.DeAndre might take the slot position from Mike.

 

The Baltimore Sun, ESPN, CSNBaltimore.com and even our own Garrett Downing and Ryan Mink all pointed to Sacramento State wide receiver-returner DeAndre Carter as a standout performer.

[CapoRocky]

The kick/punt returner job is up for grabs. I love it.

[hen826957]

Can we just put like one on the 53 man squad and one on the practice squad so we could keep both Campanaro & DeAndre Carter.

[huntrgathrr]

Campanaro, Jackson or Carter. Probably one of them. This will not be an area of great strength this year, probably the only area where we are average or below. Remains to be seen.

[RavensReck27]

I think we are going to add a CB and secure that question mark. After we do that, the only hole left that I see is the PR/KR position. We lost one of the best in the game at that position, and finding a good replacement will be important. If we can take care of that, then our team would be looking realll nice boys.

[RavensReck27]

"DeAndre Carter to the house!" has a nice ring to it. But my all time favorite will always be "There goes Jacoby Jones!"

DeAndre Carter should be the PR/KR. Camp i would keep healthy. He is a sneaky little devil with good hands. I see a Welker/Amendola esque style WR and someone that is hard to account for when Perriman, Smith, Akon are making noise. would hate to see another stroke of bad luck hit Campanaro on KR again too. Kid has spectacular talent as a WR and id like to see more of that as i see that being a bigger value for the team. Carter is a sure shot and can really do the type of damage we need as PR/KR imo

[mettro79]

I know Jacoby made selecting a returner easy, but I think we are better off than people think. Between Cmampanaro and Carter I think we will be good to go.

[Krabcake]

I love Webby but he's too fragile to put back there.

[RavenManiac#7]

NOT WEBBY!!! The chance of injury is just too great to make it worth it. We need him on the field on defense. He's had more than his share of injuries. I don't know why Harbs would even Think about using him to return punts. If he Did put him back there, I would hope that he would be told to make a fair catch Every time. Yeah, he's sure handed, but I'd Hate to see him back there at all, let alone try to return one. Some things are just Not worth the risk. If we learned Anything from last year's ridiculous number of injuries to CBs, please let it be that you don't use a starting CB to return punts, or kickoffs either. Just Don't Do It!!!

[RavenManiac#7]

Campanaro would Never clear waivers and make it to the PS. He would Definitely be claimed and we'd lose him. I think it would be a Big loss too. I think Camp will be a Great slot receiver. The only question, and I mean Only question, is if he can stay healthy. This kid's got a lot of talent. For that reason alone, I would rather he Not return punts even though with his sure hands he is capable. I just don't like the injury risk. He will be a Great chain mover on 3rd downs. Do all you can to keep him healthy.
