Let's hope he has the fire to be a disruptive force! We need someone on D to put some fear and swagger back. Thought KLM would have made more noise, or even Carl Davies, but they've been real quiet of late. Canty and Brandon Williams seem the only ones on the front consistently causing problems for opponents.

Urban and Canty will be the "Twin Towers"

[jravens13]

I really want to see what this guy can do. Huge frame.

[SCravenfan]

I want to see this man go wild Monday night

[Bob21043]

Hey Mink - isn't Aug 6 until now really only 3 1/2 months ????

[drillem]

Another delayed draft pick impact. Would like to see Perriman show up sometime in the next couple of years too.

[Ryan Mink]

@Bob Thanks! Looks like I need Urschel to give me a little math refresher.

Carl Davis has been good when he gets in. It seems that getting the start over Williams and Jernigan is going to be hard.

They called this guy a very raw JJ Watt. I would love it if he turned out even half as good. Long arms to bat down passes and tip up passes for more turnovers. Excited to see this guy get better these next couple seasons.

yea he did good things including preseason for about a 7 game stretch. He might be battling some type of lingering injury as of late because he is not that same person

[Xmadraven]

D-line has potential but nobodys living up to it aside from brandon williams. Jernigan needs to play to the level he's capable of, Still the run defense isn't the problem. Everything else is....The cursed injuries...(horrific penalties) nothing went right this year. I can't think of a single positive thing aside from the TEs who will probaly sneeze and shatter their noses or something.

[Purple Dawg 96]

Kool I've been waiting to see Brent big time!

[MissRay27]

Hope that Brent can be up on Monday night. We need him to be a difference maker.

[Tower of Power]

Very good. And I hope he'll see some end-zone receiving activity, like JJ Watt does.

[Rich McG]

Coach Harbaugh acts like the game means something. The Browns, meaningless. Play the dude. Sink or swim. Enough of babying draft choices the the Ravens dud as "super stars" before they play a single down. Play ball as we prepare for next season.

[Purple Hazard]

Excited to see what he can do!

I don't know about you but every game I played in a teams uniform, whether it be football, softball or basketball means something. You don't play becuz of your record....you play becuz you love to compete.....becuz you love the one on one matchups.....becuz it for your team and team mates. Sorry, Rich McG, but if I play I play with everything I have and I play to win.

[GENE2407]

Really wanted to see this guy all year long. Let's hope he's as good as he looked in preseason.

Still looking for that sarcasm button are we?

absolutely lol

[Maryland]

Can't wait to finally see this dude play. He has been so hyped in TC the past couple years; I want to see what all the hubbub is about.

[OLD SCHOOL SMASH BALL]

Can always use pass rushers, lets see if this pick can stay on the field

I made a post in another thread about a Guy not getting any love. I knew he was under the radar but didn't know our own fans wouldn't notice him. Part of the reason why Carl Davis and Kapron Lewis-Moore can't get on the field is because of the play of Lawrence Guy. Guy is second on the D-line in tackles, very close behind Williams, and he's tied for second on the team with 3.5 sacks. Canty has been playing decently in bursts.

 

It will be nice to have Urban back if he's healthy and to get a look at what he can do in game time, but this guy has missed two full seasons of pre season football and practice time. I hope he's not another Kapron Lewis-Moore. He was hyped like mad, kept getting hurt, and now that he's finally healthy after three seasons he might not ever be the talent he was supposed to be due to all the injuries. At this point we don't NEED to have Urban. If he's not completely healthy just sit him down and get him ready for next season.

 

As for Carl Davis I noticed something. In the very first game he played he was in against starters and he never even had his name mentioned. It wasn't until later when the back ups were playing that he started to make plays. To me that means that the physical tools are probably there, but he needs to learn a bit better technique. I look for him to make a bigger impact next year. Jernigan has just really disappeared too. These guys are going to get some snaps along with Zadarius Smith next season because I don't think the Ravens will bring back Canty or Upshaw.

[ellicottraven]

The good thing is this game time experience will help Urban get ready to contribute next year. Also, ti will help us evaluate how good Urban really is.

[cobrajet]

Glad to find out Urban is on the active roster again. Can wait to see him in action.

[Kwilliams84]

cant wait to see what he can do out there on the field ill be at the game. lets go ravens.
