We Are Defiantly Making A Great Pick No Matter What, IF We Don't Trade Back Which I Just Don't See Us Doing!! I Think We Go Bosa Or Jack IMO!!! Ether Way #LETSGORAVENS!!!

[The Greek]

tunsil or ramsey if they are both available. man o man what a tough call to make. i would go with ramsey only if the fo feels they can find a LT in the second rd. that they can develop into a starter. not often do you get the chance to possibly draft the next jonathan ogden.

i would personally go with tunsil than best defender on the board in the 2nd rd.

I don't see any scenario with both of them available at 6th.  The ONLY way they're both available to us is trading w/ SD.

tunsill will slide down to us, the question is: will the ravens pick tunsil or trade down?

[Ravenskid52752]

Tunsil will be the pick!

i do not see them both available either. it was meant to be a hypothetical so i could see who we all would choose if presented with that scenario

This trade made no difference. Browns were probably going to pick a QB any way but I think they wised up and going to build up all their other positions then find a QB. This is bad news for Ravens. All those picks could push Ravens into forth place in coming years. Nothing last forever not even Browns miseries.

And what makes you think we're going to stay close to the cellar of the AFC North?  

You know you can jump on the bandwagon of 31 other teams at ANY time. 

[ellicottraven]

We just move down 2 spots in the draft in an assumed sucky QB market where no QB is taken in the 1st round. So, we'll technically get one of the top 4 non-QB prospects with our #6 pick. Better yet, we are the perfect trade partner for the Bills and the Jets to take Paxton Lynch before SF gets a hand on him....

Are you finished with your hypothetical crusade? Don't forget the Ravens are going to pick a stellar player or 3 in this draft. And we are a pretty complete team even before the draft. QBs make or break a team and I don't see RGIII doing anything substantial in Cleveland period. In a few years they may find out that this was the worst trade they ever partook in even worse than their myriad blunders with draft picks.

Yawn. Wake me when Cleveland doesn't screw up a draft.

How's having a bunch of picks worked out for them so far? 7 first round picks in 4 years and I'm not impressed with any of them.

[birdseye]

Ideal 3 round mock draft for me, really 3 (a, b, c) mocks depending on which players we choose in previous rd.

rd1. a. Ramsey b. Tunsil, c. Buckner
rd2. a.Noah Spence b. Chris Jones c.Mackensie Alexander
rd3. a. Sterling Shepard b.Cyrus Jones c. Kyler Fackrell

[ravens4life86]

It Changes nothing Really. All along..we knew 2 QBs were going 1,2.. its just a matter of who. And it looks like Rams,Eagles..not Rams,Browns.

Things can still change dramatically.. because I expect QB needy teams like Niners,Jets etc to possibly try and leapfrog Browns at 8 who could take Lynch still. If that happens I see Ravens or Jags as possible trade partners.

However if that doesnt go down.. I want at 6..The Defensive GameChanger..Ramsey,Jack,Bosa,Buckner etc...or "The Special Franchise RB" Zeke Elliot

I will say this, there's a new regime in CLE front office.  So you can't judge their past history (old regime) with what they're doing now. 

[The Greek]

smart trade by the browns. maybe the new regime has some brains. curious to see how their draft goes.

[Heisenberg101]

Noticed in the article it was mentioned that 2 of the 6 prospects listed would fall to the Ravens. My math tells me that 3 of those prospects will be there for them to choose from.

Not so sure about brains they did plop down about 7 mil to RG3

They've got RGIII for a year, still stink, draft high again next year when theres some really good QBs coming out of college. wow. I'm actually thinking the Browns are smartening up...NAH!!!

[Tower of Power]

Best thing would be SF asking us for a trade, to prevent us from trading with Jets or Bills or whatever. We could get some significant extra pick, and practically still draft the same player we would have taken at 6.

[Fastynart]

It doesn't affect the Ravens one bit. Whomever was in the second spot, be it Cleveland or someone dumb enough to give them a bunch of draft picks (wonder who that is) to get to #2, they were going to take a QB. Now, if only the Ravens could find another dummy willing to give up the farm for the #6 pick. As P.T. Barnum said "There is a sucker born every minute".

[TheConquerorWorm]

Cowboys are without a single pass rusher with Hardy gone and BOTH Lawrence & Gregory suspended for 4 games. Gotta believe they have to seriously consider Bosa now. If we can sucker Jax into taking Jack, that leaves Tunsil or Ramsey for us.....

[HomeoftheBRAVENS]

I hope to goodness that the Chargers take Tunsil so we don't mess around and take him over someone like Jack,Buckner or *crosses my fingers and hope that he's still there* Bosa.That pick doesn't make sense for a team that already has a solid left tackle in place and is in win now mode.Why take a LT just to have him sit behind Monroe who is a good player when healthy?Tunsil would be a waste of a rare pick that's basically a top four pick after the two QB's are picked.Our defense needs this pick more than our offense and this is coming from a guy who is immensely biased towards offense.We need one of those potentially elite defenders.Preferably Bosa or Jack because Ramsey will be gone and I don't see us trading up a spot or two for him.

I'm hoping for Ramsey, Jack, or bosa myself but never thought of our team as being in a "win now" mode

[ALSKAN RAVEN FAN]

I just don't want Elliott.

No way RG3 can last a full year in our division with the talentless browns. He will get eaten alive.

Did you see how many decent players left Cleveland this offseason. They might have acquired a lot of picks, but they are not close to being in contention for the division. The way this draft is going, we have a chance to add several impact players in Round 1-4.

[bioLarzen]

It's really starting to be interesting to see what the Browns are doing... It may prove to be a catastrophe or a real hit - but at least they seem to be really trying to do something this time...

[jravens1313]

Josh Norman just became an unrestricted FA. This is the one player I would sign to a big deal, knowing our struggle to find a quality CB to play opposite Jimmy Smith and that we are not in position in draft one in the 1st Round.
