(7 WRs): S. Smith, B. Perriman, M. Brown, K.Aiken, D. Waller, D. Carter, M. Campanaro (6 CBs): J. Smith, L. Webb, K. Arrington, A. Jackson, R. Melvin, C. Vaughn (put Tray Walker on practice squad) (4 TEs): D. Pitta (if he returns), N. Boyle, M. Williams, C. Gillmore (2 Qbs): J. Flacco, M. Schaub (4 S): K. Lewis, W. Hill III, M. Elam or N. Perry, T. Brooks (3 RBs): J. Forsett, B. Allen, L. Taliaferro (8 DL): C. Canty, B. Williams, T. Jernigan, C. Bilukidi, D. Tyson, K-L. Moore, B. Urban, L. Guy (3 ST): J. Tucker, S. Koch, M. Cox (6 LBs): E. Dumervil, T. Suggs, CJ. Mosley, D. Smith, Z. Smith, C. Upshaw (Arthur Brown practice squad or realise/trade) (FB): Kyle Juszczyk (8 OL): M. Yanda, K. Osemele, R. Wagner, J. Zuttah, E. Monroe, J. Urshal, J. Hurst, R. Myers (Leader of special teamers): A. Mecclellan

I hope Campanaro has a speedy recovery on his quad and Jimmy keep up the good work.

Why would the NFL schedule the rookie meetings during OTA's?  Just dumb!!

I think Camp may be wound up a little too tight !

Maybe he should look into some yoga classes before he misses a bunch more games this season.

They said he took yoga, pilates and stretching classes during the winter/offseason.

Any positive News on Brooks is Great news. He showed flashes of greatness last year, especially with that lights out hit on TE Walker in Titans game that knocked him out of game, and being positionally right for a couple picks even if they weren't caught. If he can comeback a couple weeks earlier that is a Bonus.

[KidNme]

Looks like Camp is always fighting an up hill battle.

His resume is beginning to look a bit bleak. I don;t know if he's just trying too hard or if he's just accident prone. I hope he can stay healthy this year but so far, he's just not holding up very well.

I wonder on my 53 man list that I miss special team players that run for kickoff count because if it does then I have to take players out other than that my 53 man roster looks real good with great depth everywhere. I even have to write all the players down to count to 53 man roster. Ozzie did a great job for this team.

if camp keeps having thigh issues, i would much rather take a Carter in the slot, especially being praised by S.Smith, i just think carter will make more of a staple in our offense moving forward if he makes the team then camp will. not trying to say camp isnt good, but this is now second year with thigh injuries.

Would definitely prefer to see someone that ain't a starter field returns

I am with you on that.

Something tells me Pitta will be a full go once the regular season begins. And he will pick up exactly where he left it!

[Purple&BlackHeart]

Aaaaawwwww yeaaahhhhhh! This is sounding good(Minus the Camp injury but at least its not severe) all our boys are getting healthy and practicing, with the exception of Brent but hey its personal I can dig it. Just work hard work smart and stay healthy and this team will go along way fellas.

 

I truly believe this is the year of the raven.

As far as Camp goes maybe he needs to higher a nutritionist(if the team doesn't already have one) and change his diet. Also maybe try and get one of these vets that have been ageless wonders over the years phone number and ask for some fountain of youth secrets. Guys like Ray Lewis,Charles Woodson, or even guys on the team like SSS who's been doing it forever. Plenty of Knowledge all around you Camp and the NFL is like a brotherhood don't be shy, vets like to share.

When was the last time someone was reported to be behind schedule when rehabbing an injury? RG3 was ahead of schedule when rehabbing his ACL; how'd that work out for him? Sure hope Jimmy comes back strong though.

Spelling looked good.

he's not healthy yet, he's still got quite a ways to go and is flirting with missing next season if he gets IRed

Thanks @Bruce_Almighty however wonder why I got so many negatives about my 53 man roster for the Ravens it looks like a great roster. Wonder what's bad about it.

YES, thank you.  Usually "ahead of schedule" is just code for "not following doctor's orders and risking re-injuring himself".  Campanaro was "ahead of schedule" in his rehab too and look where he's ended up.  Now I'm hearing Jimmy is pushing himself beyond what he's supposed to be doing.  You can't do that with foot/leg injuries.  You will either re-aggravate the injury or cause injury to your previously uninjured leg because you're trying too hard to compensate (this is likely why Webb tore his left ACL the year after coming back from tearing his right ACL/MCL).  I understand guys wanting to be out there and wanting to look tough but it's hard to look tough when you spend 6 games a year on IR.

[Crusader]

The only thing I would want Jimmy Smith do is get ready for the first game against Denver and forget all this preseason stuff. Ravens need protective wrap for Joe, Jimmy and Justine.
