[News] Ravens Awarded Three Compensatory Picks

[concretejimmy]

the 6th rd picks are useless. they never pan out for us. hope we can pkg our non 6th rd comp pk with a non comp 4th rd pk and move up. we all know that these 9 draft pks will not make the team so trading some to move up makes sense. this team needs game changers and attitude

Adalius Thomas in 2000. Ravens used their 5th pick on Jamal Lewis. The rest of the 2000 draft was garbage.

Could've done some real damage if this was the year comp picks could've been traded.

The comp picks can't be traded, but can't trade other picks in and around the same rounds the comp picks are, essentially making it the same as trading our comps ?

Can trade their late 4th rounder they got from Denver.

Any explanation as to why Taylor didn't net a pick?

In the article.

So the Bills got a QB that went to the pro bowl and the Ravens got nothing?

wow, i thought we were gonna get at least a 3rd for torrey or mcphee

Cheated. Torrey was a 2nd round pick that signed for big bucks. But the Patriots get a 3rd round pick for Revis who wasn't even drafted and played there for one year.

7 picks prior to the 5th round is great nourishment to the Ravens brain trust! I think they'll excel in this draft for 2 reasons. One, they are the Ravens and two, this draft may offer the best mid round prospects of many drafts in the past.
I expect the Ravens to come away with at least 5-6 starters and a couple of pro-bowl caliber players from this draft.

Time to fix the defense. Offense will be fine. Do need to draft an OL.
