they should have promoted ted monachino to dc or went after someone like jim schwartz. what i like about pees is because of his age he will not get any hc opportunities which allows this defense to have continuity but the problem is he is old school  like greg mattison was and they run a bend but dont break laid back style of defense while we are used to marvin, rex and chucks aggressive bring all hell attacking style of defense which greg and dean do not know how to run because it is too complex for them. maybe frazier gets a chance down the road but that would make for personnel and scheme issues because he runs the tampa 2 defense. i just do not want to see us waste a whole season waiting for harbs too realize that pees is not the right guy so im hoping pees does come up with more aggressive schemes and allows guys like frazier and martindale to help come up with schemes that caters to our personnel. we are not a feared defense any longer and we need to get back to being the bullies on the block. front office needs to bring in some speed on defense and guys that can attack the qb

Several problems with your post.

1. If they sign Jim Schwartz, you guarantee a switch to the 4-3, but they have no depth for the linebackers.
2. If you don't like Pees because he runs a "bend but don't break defense", then why in the world would you want the Tampa 2? That's the exact definition of what the Tampa 2 is. I actually like the idea of the Tampa 2 if the Ravens could get better LB depth because Mosley has the sideline to sideline range needed and Jernigan could be the ideal 3T. 
3. Errr, Rex, Marvin, Pagano did not run complex schemes. There schemes were very straight forward. The issue that most people perceive to be an issue with Pees scheme is that it is too complex and it causes more players to read and react instead of just go full speed ahead. It requires gap discipline and the ability to read the play, not just put your head down and go, like they would have under Rex. 
4. Okay, so the FO commits all their money to the defense and all the draft picks to the defense. They have to cut a few offensive players or let a few walk (Forsett, KO, etc) to accommodate for the defensive signings. Then Joe Flacco is left out to dry and you're upset that the FO didn't commit more to the offense.

LOL. Some people will just never be happy. Even when this team went to the playoffs however many years in a row, many still complained. Me included. It's the nature of being a fanatic. All most want is to see improvement every year. No?

Yes to improvement but to think the Ravens can do playoffs every year is simply not going to happen for any team( except the cheater Pats maybe lol).

the Ravens cannot continue to count on budget free agents to improve the team each year.

Why not? A lot of the great teams in the league do the same thing annually...
