Are they doing 1 on 1 drills now because they don't have enough healthy guys to go 11 on 11?

Hope Perriman comes back soon.

really? None of the injuries are serious. They would play in a game except for urban and Elam. Harbaugh likes to rest players.

all rookies are dinged up,

Gilmore will have a huge year. He's the same size as Gronkowski and looks like the Ravens are going to exploit him this year. I expect a lot of 2 TE sets with Williams. Gilmore is a great blocker as well making him an indispensible weapon. Even if Pitta was healthy I'm not sure you could take Gilmore off the field.

Aren't they? I mean you're right that non of them are in the Elam-Urban ball park, but missing an entire season is close to as bad as it gets injury wise so you can't really compare those injuries.

But Perriman, who was supposed to miss couple of days, has now missed almost over a week. Considering it's a knee injury, I'm getting a bit worried. Brown had a back issue. Now the back is solved, they say he has another problem with hamstring. He has also been out for almost a week. If it was regular season then it would mean both of those guys would have most likely missed a game. That is generaly considered a problematic tendency already.

Now, Maxx's eye. Usually when you get poked in the eye you take a time out, wash it off and get back into the game. The fact that he missed several days and had a temporary loss of vision in injured eye prior to rejoining practices... I mean, if loss of sight isn't serious, then I don't know what you consider serious, dude!

Bottom line is, we have lost 2 depth players for the year and 3 potential starters are sitting out for nearly a week. That's already too meany too long injuries for my liking. But that's me you know, I like my players healthy and practicing out there.

I,m rooting for Jeremy. Keep it up Jeremy they may need you and I'm hoping you do well not only in camp but during the season.

I should reserve judgment until the 2nd or 3rd preseason game to truly assess the team. Either Aiken and Butler are diamonds in rough and are good or our secondary continues to struggle. Ravens seem to beat each other up in camp. All of these muscles tears and hamstrings makes me believe Ravens need to look into trainer to incorporate less weights and more stretching / flexibility. Injuries and killed the Ravens opportunities to win division since they are never at full strength during the season. No team really is , but Ravens have been plagued by key injuries.

Agreed, I would love to see him out there so we can evaluate whether he will be ready to start this season.

Just wait until the pre season starts and everybody will be playing. Like i said, Harbs likes to rest players. Im sure Maxx is fine and you shouldnt worry about it neither. He got pomed in the eye. Not an acl tear.

Now is no the time to push the envelope, a long way to go in camp and pre-season games, these guys still have to get their bodies adjusted to these intense practices, and the coaches and trainers know how to monitor players, and when to rest players, especially ones coming off injuries...It's a marathon not a sprint....Having said that..C'Mon Marlon get healthy i have been supporting you since training camp your rook year, and advocating you be the #2 WR going into camp....Your killing me here....
